lyrics: [Intro: Paul McCartney, John Lennon and George Harrison]
  It's getting better all the time
  
  [Verse 1: Paul McCartney (& John Lennon and George Harrison)]
  I used to get mad at my school (No, I can't complain)
  The teachers who taught me weren't cool (No, 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 and 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 and 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
  Getting so much better all the time!
  
  [Post-Chorus: Paul McCartney (& John Lennon and 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 and John Lennon]
  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 and George Harrison)]
  I 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 and 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, and George Harrison]
  Getting so much better all the time!
