You step up to the ledge
You're high but looking down
And if someone doesn't find you here
They could find you on the ground

But if you wanna catch the light
You gotta reach a little more
So jump! Jump off, take flight
It ain't worth nothing if it ain't worth fighting for

And it's gonna get better
There's no telling where we'll go now
Go on, go on, go on and get 'er
It's getting better, better, better, better, better, better

You got disaster to the left
And devastation to the right
A catastrophe in front of you
And a fiasco in behind

But if you wanna keep the peace
Sometimes you have to go to war
So hup! Two! Three!
It ain't worth nothing if it ain't worth fighting for

And it's gonna get better
There's no telling where we'll go now
Go on, go on, go on and get 'er
It's getting better, better, better, better, better, better
