.

It's getting better all the time

I used to get mad at my school

The teachers that taught me weren't cool

You're holding me down

Burning me round

filling me up with the rules

.

I've got to admit it's getting better

a little better all the time

I have to admit it's getting better

it's getting better since you've been mine

.

Me used to be angry young man

Me hiding me head in the sand

You gave m the word

I finally heard

I'm doing the best that I can

.

I've got to admit it's getting better

a little better all the time

I have to admit it's getting better

it's getting better since you've been mine

getting so much better all the time

.

It's getting better all the time

better, better, better

It's getting better all the time

better, better, better

.

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

.

I've got to admit it's getting better

a little better all the time

Yes, admit it's getting better

it's getting better since you've been mine

getting so much better all the time

.

It's getting better all the time

better, better, better

It's getting better all the time

better, better, better

Getting so much better all the time
