Accentuate the Positive
Ya gotta accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-Between
Ya gotta stretch high up to the maximum
Bring gloom down to the minimum
Have faith or pandemonium
Liable to walk upon the scene to illustrate this last remark
You must allow yourself to fall apart
And when you do, you'll absorb something so dark
Just breathe it in, don't chicken out
Let it dig a deep hole inside your heart
And once you do, I'd like to see you throw it out.
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-Between
Ya gotta stretch high up to the maximum
Bring gloom down to the minimum
Have faith or pandemonium
Liable to walk upon the scene to illustrate this last remark
You must allow yourself to fall apart
And when you do, you'll absorb something so dark
Just breathe it in, don't chicken out
Let it dig a deep hole inside your heart
And once you do, I'd like to see you throw it out.
