Van Morrison - Accentuate The Positive lyrics

[Van Morrison - Accentuate The Positive lyrics]

You got to accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-between

You got to spread joy 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
Jonah in the whale, Noah in The Ark
What did they do? When everything just looked dark

They said, "Man, you got to accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-between."

You got to accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-between

You got to spread joy up to the maximum
Bring gloom down to the minimum
Have faith or pandemonium
Liable to walk upon the scene

To illustrate his last remark
Jonah in the whale, Noah in The Ark
What did they do? Everything just looked dark

They said, "You got to we better accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-between."

Accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-between

Accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-between

Accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-between
