Tekst :
Gather round me, everybody
Gather round me, while I preach some
Feel a sermon coming on here
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 reviewing
The attitude of doing right
You got to ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive
E-lim-i-nate the negative
And latch on to the affirmative
Don t mess with mister inbetween
You got to spread joy up to the maximum
Bring gloom down to the minimum
And have faith, or pandemonium
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
Ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive
E-lim-i-nate the negative
And latch on to the affirmative
Don t mess with mister inbetween

Da, da, da, day...
Sufferin in the land
It is plain to see we re in a devil situation
Sufferin in the land
Nearly half of the world on the world of starvation
Sufferin in the land
And the children are crying for more education
Sufferin in the land
Let s singin
Da, da, da, day...
Sufferin in the land
The rich get richer and the poor get poorer
Sufferin in the land
Everything s gettin higher and the time get tougher
Sufferin in the land
They re making guns and bombs to set the world on fire
Sufferin in the land
I m singin
Da, da, da, day...
Sufferin in the land, Lord
Da, da, da, day...
Sufferin in the land Tekst :
Come and have a drink with me
There s a place in Portobello where a man will talk to me
Here is a story of success
As he used to jam with Jimmy untill he was laid to rest
Ooh, he had to go and lose it
Ooh, if there s a chemical abuse it
Ooh oh he said
A lot of fun, a lot of fun to be had, but over do it and end up in the rehab
A lot of fun, a lot of fun to be had, but over do it and end up in the rehab
A lot of fun, a lot of fun to be had he had
No dont be swayed by his breath
The story on his face tells of a man who s cheated death
he said son, take a llok at me
I havn t been the same since that night in Seventy
Ooh, you don t have to go and lose it
Ooh, choose it and use it
Ooh oh, cos theres
A lot of fun, a lot of fun to be had, but over do it and end up in the rehab
A lot of fun, a lot of fun to be had, but over do it and end up in the rehab
A lot of fun, a lot of fun to be had, but over do it and end up in the rehab
You ve got one life prove that you can use it, don t be a fool cos only fools abuse it
Live the life you love, the life you choose, don t be affraid
Live, the life you love, the life you choose
A lot of fun, a lot of fun to be had, but over do it and end up in the rehab
A lot of fun, a lot of fun to be had, but over do it and end up in the rehab
A lot of fun, a lot of fun to be had, but over do it and end up in the rehab
You ve got one life prove that you can use it, don t be a fool cos only fools abuse it
A lot of fun, a lot of fun to be had, but over do it and end up in the rehab
A lot of fun, a lot of fun to be had, but over do it and end up in the rehab
