Leslie Bricusse – Jekyll And Hyde Concept Album - The Engagement Party lyrics
[SIR DANVERS]
My dear Simon
You're so gracious
To wish Lisa and Henry both well
[STRIDE]
Dear Sir Danvers
As you know, Sir
I wish Lisa the sun and the moon
But I have to confess that I wish Henry Jekyll in hell!
[UTTERSON]
(spoken) Henry, at last. What could possibly be more important than your own engagement party?
[JEKYLL]
John, I am close to a breakthrough discovery!
Something spectacular, something sublime!
Finally, a light in the darkness has come to me!
Now it is only a matter of time!
[DR HASTIE LANYON]
Henry Jekyll, you're a devil
You have robbed us of London's most lovely girl
[MR RICHARD ENFIELD]
I could turn to drink when I stop to think
Lisa's marrying a doctor instead of an earl
[BOTH]
Poor girl!
[STRIDE ]
Doctor Jekyll, may I be the first to wish
You and your bride-to-be
Peace and prosperity?
[JEKYLL]
Mr. Stride, it's most civil of you
To say that, as you do
With such patent sincerity!
My dear Simon
You're so gracious
To wish Lisa and Henry both well
[STRIDE]
Dear Sir Danvers
As you know, Sir
I wish Lisa the sun and the moon
But I have to confess that I wish Henry Jekyll in hell!

[JEKYLL]
John, I am close to a breakthrough discovery!
Something spectacular, something sublime!
