The singer in the first part is Paul McCartney. When the song changes John Lennon takes the Lead Vocal part. "I used to be cruel to my woman I beat her and kept her apart from the things that she loves Man I was mean but I'm changing my scene and I'm doing the best that I can .

It is almost a constant with the Beatles that if Paul starts John will do the "middle 9" as they called it. It is also a helpful to remember that Paul wrote the nice, sweet stuff generally and John wrote the stuff with the bite. John is angry and Paul is in love, sort of like that.

"Getting Better" is a song attributed to John Lennon and Paul McCartney and thought to be largely composed by McCartney. It was recorded by The Beatles for the 1967 album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. The song's music suggests optimism yet the lyric, strongly influenced by Lennon, alludes to more sinister themes. In this sense, it exaggerates the contrasting personas of the two most active songwriters in the group. Lennon wrote the answers in the chorus ("it can't get no worse") and the verses: "Me used to be angry young man ..." and: "I used to be cruel to my woman...", the rest is McCartney's.

According to Hunter Davies, the initial idea for the song's title came from a phrase often spoken by Jimmy Nicol, the group's stand-in drummer for the Australian leg of a 1964 tour.[1]

The song, musically reminiscent of the hit single "Penny Lane", moves forward by way of regular chords, produced by Lennon's guitar and George Martin, who struck the strings of a pianette with a mallet. These heavily accented and repetitive lines cause the song to sound as if it is based on a drone. Lead guitarist George Harrison adds an Indian tambura part to the final verse, which further accentuates this impact.

Yes, the song is rather rad. Paul sings lead and John sings the 'it cant get no worse' parts and stuff
