Gather 'round me, everybody
Gather 'round me while I preach some
Feel a sermon comin' on me
The topic will be sin, and that's what I'm agin'
If you wanna hear my story
Then settle back and just sit tight
While I start reviewin'
The attitude of doin' right
You gotta accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-Between
You gotta spread joy up to the maximum
Bring gloom down to the minimum
Have faith or pandemonium's
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
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-Between"
You gotta accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-Between
You gotta spread joy up to the maximum
Bring gloom down to the minimum
Have faith or pandemonium's
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, "You better accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-Between"
No, don't mess with Mr. In-Between
Don't mess around with Mr. In-Between
Don't mess with Mr. In-Between
He's a mess, don't mess with him
Don't mess around with Mr. In-Between
Don't mess around with Mr. In-Between
