Hyde, Hyde. Someone is spending my money for me,The money I earn I never see,In all things I do he interferes,All I know is trouble as soon as he appears. Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Hyde. When I drink my potion my character changes,My whole mind and body rearranges,This strange transformation takes place in me,Instead of myself everybody can see... Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Hyde. Whenever you're with me make sure it's still me,I've got to the stage I can't tell which I'll be,The loveable fellow who'll buy you a drink,Then when he's drunk his he'll change in a wink into... Hyde, Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Hyde.

I'm a million ages past youA million years behind you tooA thousand miles up in the airA trillion times I've seen you there Your hair is golden, mine is greyYou walk on grass, it turns to hayYour blood is blue and mine is redMy body strains but the nerves are dead I can't reach youI've strained my eyesI can't reach youI've split my sidesI can't reach trying to get on youSee, feel or hear from you The distances grow greater nowYou drink champagne and past me plowYou fly your plane right over my headYou're still alive and I'm nearly dead I can't reach youWith my arms outstretchedI can't reach youI crane my neckI can't reach trying to get on youSee, feel or hear from you Once I caught a glimpse of your unguarded untouched heartOur fingertips touched and then my mind tore us apart I can't reach youWith my arms outstretchedI can't reach youI crane my neckI can't reach trying to get on youSee, feel or hear from you I can't reach youWith my arms outstretchedI can't reach youI crane my neckI can't reach trying to get on youSee, feel or hear from you
