Getting Better a Beatles low

Beatles lyric range from innocuous to clever, but age well considering they are 40 and 50 years old.
One that doesn’t is “Getting Better”.
A pleasant Paul led tune musically but how about “I used to be cruel to my woman, I beat her and kept her apart from the things that she loves.”
Yikes. And then “Man I was mean but I’m changing my scene and I’m doing the best that I can.”
The notion of the narrator getting better isn’t quite enough to overcome what he is getting better from.
