Perry Como - Accentuate The Positive (Saturday Night With Mr. C.)

( Ac-cent-thu-ate the positive,
e-lim-inate the negative,
ac-cent-thu-ate the positive, an' latch on! )

You gotta accent-thu-ate the positive,
E-lim-inate the negative,
An' latch on
To the affirmative
Don't mess with Mister in-between!

You gotta spread joy up to the maximum,
Bring gloom down to the minimum,
An' have faith ( Amen! )
Or pandemonium's
Liable to walk upon the scene!

To illustrate
My last remark
Jonah in the whale!
Noah in the arc!
An' what did they do ( What did they do? )
Just when everything looked so dark?

( What did they, what did they, what did they do? )

Man! they said
You better accent-thu-ate the positive,
E-lim-inate the negative,
An' latch on
To the affirmative
Don't mess with Mister in-between!
No, don't mess with Mister in-between!

( To illustrate
His last remark
Jonah in the whale!
Noah in the arc! )
An' what did they do
( What did they do?
Just when everything looked so dark?
What did they do, what did they do? )

Man! they said
You better accent-thu-ate the positive,
E-lim-inate the negative,
An' latch on
To the affirmative
Don't mess with Mister in-between!
No, don't mess with Mister in-between!
No, don't you mess with Mister in-between!
No, don't mess with Mister in-between!

Hilarious role reversal

The record was a big hit. On C.D. compilations it's not the original single, however; it's an alternate take. The Fontaines had many hits with Perry but most amazing was their total transformation on Dot Records to a rock 'n roll group. Three older ladies from New Jersey rocked out with "Hearts of Stone" and many other great records, including a great "Eddie My Love" and "I'm Stickin' With You." Amazing.
