Now, children, it's time for a little learnin' time
Here's a guy by the name of Johnny Mercer
Who gave us a little bit of philosophy that I'd like to teach you
You've gotta accentuate the positive
And eliminate the negative and latch on
ย
Yes
ย
You've gotta accentuate the positive
And eliminate the negative
And latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-Between
You've gotta spread joy up to the maximum
And bring gloom down to the minimum
Have faith or pandemonium
Is liable to walk upon the scene
To illustrate my last remark
Jonah in the whale, Noah in the ark
What did they do?
Just when everything looked so dark
Man, they said, "We better accentuate the positive
And eliminate the negative
And latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-Between"
No, don't mess with Mr. In-Between

No, don't mess with Mr. In-Between
Ba, ba-ba, do, do-da, do, do, de
Do-ba, do, do, do, da, do, da, da, da-da
Ba, ba, do, do, do, do, de
