Getting Better Lyrics by Five Stairsteps

[Intro]
It's getting better all the time

[Verse 1]
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 (Ooh, ooh-ooh)

[Chorus]
I've got to admit, it's getting better
It’s getting better all the time (Can't get no worse)
Yes, I admit, it's getting better
It's getting better, since you've been mine

[Verse 2]
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]
I've got to admit, it's getting better
A little better all the time (Can't get no worse)
Yes, I admit, it's getting better
It's getting better, since you've been mine

[Interlude]
Getting so much better all the time

[Post-Chorus]
It's getting better all the time
(Better, better, better)
It's getting better all the time
(Better, better, better)

[Verse 3]
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 (Ooh, ooh-ooh)

[Chorus]
I've got to admit, it's getting better
A little better all the time (Can't get no worse)
Yes, I admit, it's getting better
It's getting better, since you've been mine

[Interlude]
Getting so much better all the time

[Outro]
It's getting better all the time
(Better, better)
It's getting better all the time
(Better, better)
It's getting better all the time
(Better, better)
