Jekyll And Hyde: The Original Broadway Production - First Transformation Lyrics

JEKYLL:
I must be wise,
I must try to analyse
Each change in me,
Everything I see -
How will it be?
Will I see the world
Through different eyes?

Like a warning light,
Glimmering in red,
Like crimson bloodshed,
Shimmering in red,
Beautiful and strange,
See the colours change
Before my eyes!
See how they dance
And they sparkle,
Like diamonds at night -
Leading out of the darkness
And into the light!

Three fifty-eight a.m. It is done. I have injected 5 centilitres of the newly fused formula.
A slight feeling of euphoria. Light-headedness. No noticeable behavioural differences.

Now the die is cast!
Nothing left to do...
Time along can prove
My theories true...
Show the world...

Dear God! What is this?

Something is happening -
I can't explain -
Something inside me -
A breath taking pain -
Devours and consumes me -
And drives me insane!

Suddenly -
Uncontrolled -
Something is
Taking hold!

Suddenly -
Agony -
Filling me!
Killing me!
Suddenly -
Out of breath!
What is this?
Is this death?

Changing into Hyde:
Suddenly -
Look at me! -
Can it be?
Who is this
Creature
That I see?
Free!
