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.
