Getting Better Lyrics
[Intro: Paul McCartney, John Lennon & George Harrison]
It’s getting better all the time
[Verse 1: Paul McCartney, John Lennon & George Harrison]
I used to get mad at my school (Now, I can’t complain)
The teachers who taught me weren’t cool (Now, I can’t complain)
You’re holding me down (Ah-ah), turning me ’round (Ah-oh)
Filling me up with your rules (Fool, you fool)
[Chorus: Paul McCartney, John Lennon & George Harrison]
I’ve got to admit it’s getting better (Better)
A little better all the time (It can’t get no worse)
I have to admit it’s getting better (Better)
It’s getting better since you’ve been mine
[Verse 2: Paul McCartney]
Me used to be angry young man
Me hiding me head in the sand
You gave me the word, I finally heard
I’m doing the best that I can
[Chorus: Paul McCartney, John Lennon & George Harrison, Paul McCartney & John Lennon]
I’ve got to admit it’s getting better (Better)
A little better all the time (It can’t get no worse)
Yes, I admit it’s getting better (Better)
It’s getting better since you’ve been mine
Getting so much better all the time
[Post-Chorus: Paul McCartney, John Lennon & George Harrison]
It’s getting better all the time
(Better, better, better)
It’s getting better all the time
(Better, better, better)
[Verse 3: Paul McCartney & John Lennon, John Lennon & George Harrison]
I used to be cruel to my woman
I beat her and kept her apart from the things that she loved
Man, I was mean but I’m changing my scene
And I’m doing the best that I can (Fool, you fool)
[Chorus: Paul McCartney, John Lennon & George Harrison, Paul McCartney & John Lennon]
I’ve got to admit it’s getting better (Better)
A little better all the time (It can’t get no worse)
I have to admit it’s getting better (Better)
It’s getting better since you’ve been mine
Getting so much better all the time
[Post-Chorus: Paul McCartney, John Lennon & George Harrison]
It’s getting better all the time
(Better, better, better)
It’s getting better all the time
(Better, better, better)
[Outro: Paul McCartney, John Lennon & George Harrison]
Getting so much better all the time
