1
Jackals hide behind handsome faces
2
Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde remind me, remind me
3
In a bedroom of a brick and stucco house
4
A girl in Seersucker pants reached for a book to pass the day away
5
Not yet knowing the proper way to read
6
The girl took the tales as fact and cried all afternoon
7
After dinner and after her daily bath
8
Clean-skinned and damp-haired she lay down to bed as the lights went out
9
Under an Amish quilt and inside her flannel pajamas
10
The girl wrestled with troubled thoughts, troubled sleep, troubled dreams
11
The elevator opens on a white frost-bitten world
12
I step out and the doors slide closed
13
Leaving me alone with the only one who could hurt me
14
Jackals hide behind handsome faces
15
Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde remind me, remind me
16
Old Gepetto sold all his winter clothes to buy books for his wooden son
17
Who lied, lied through his nose
18
And when the circus wagon came rollin' through the town
19
The boy jumped aboard and left not even a note
20
In desperation over this disappearance
21
The old man with his arthritic hands tore down his house plank by plank
22
And carried each, one by one, down to the harbour
23
Trading his shoes for some nails and a hammer to build, to build himself a boat
24
"The waters are wide, but I will find my child
25
I'll set out into the sun until I met my end in the belly of a whale"
26
Jackals hide behind handsome faces
27
Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde remind me, remind me
28
1982 Mercedes Blue rumbling sputter
29
Of a diesel engine and the gooseflesh returns
30
Isn't it a pity, isn't it a shame?
31
We can't see ourselves inside this moving sedan
32
The windshield's too busy to reflect
33
But the outside looks lovely and oh so tempting
34
The light on the smokestacks and water towers beckons me, beckons to me
35
So hello, my newfound friend Disaster
36
Come sit down at our round-table
37
Let us ask your advice: Should we bring on the accident?
38
Drive on, my friends
39
There's love beyond this bend
40
Sky is falling, doctor's calling
41
But still it's worth the wait
42
Time's passed, time is passing
43
And time will pass
44
Jackals hide behind handsome faces
45
Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde remind me, remind me
