Mama Cass: It's Getting Better (but not for the Yanks)


Once I believed that when love came to me
It would come with rockets, bells and poetry
But with me and you it just started quietly and grew
And believe it or not
Now there's something groovy and good
Bout whatever we got
And it's getting better
Growing stronger warm and wilder
Getting better everyday, better everyday
I don't feel all turned on and starry eyed
I just feel a sweet contentment deep inside
Holding you at night just seems kind of natural and right
And it's not hard to see
That it isn't half of what it's going to turn out to be
Cause it's getting better
Growing stronger, warm and wilder
Getting better everyday, better everyday
And just like a flower that takes time to bloom
This love of ours is taking time to grow
Ba da da da da da da da da da da da
And I don't mind waitin', don't mind waitin'
Cause no matter how long it takes
The two of us know
That it's getting better
Growing stronger, warm and wilder
Getting better everyday, better everyday


The NY Yankee 2009 version:
Once I believed that when CC and AJ came to NYC
They would come with wins, complete games and pitching wizardry
But with them and old tired bats they just started losing and just blew
And believe it or not
Now there's something gloomy and bad
Bout whatever we got
And it's getting worser
Growing weaker, colder and sadder
Getting worser everyday, worser everyday
I don't feel all turned on and starry eyed
I just feel a sour compartment deep inside
Watching them at night just seems kind of unnatural and trite
And it's not hard to see
That it isn't half of what it's going to turn out to be
