I used to get mad at my school
The teachers that taught me weren't cool
Holding me down, and turning me round
Filling me up with your rules

Got to admit it's getting better
It's getting better all the time
Have to admit it's getting better
It's getting better, since you'll be mine

I 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

Got to admit it's getting better
It's getting better all the time
Have to admit it's getting better
It's getting better, since you'll be 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

Got to admit it's getting better
It's getting better all the time
Have to admit it's getting better
It's getting better, since you'll be mine
Getting so much better all the time
