Lyrics
Note: The lines in green represent the tracks only seen in the Arthur and Friends: The First Almost Real Not Live CD (or Tape).
One day I went to the library That night I had a scary dream
I started turning green, feeling mean
When I awoke, I was me again
|
I couldn’t take it, just couldn’t take it I said, "Mr. Hyde has arrived"
'Cause I was
Chorus (repeat x3) |

Notes
- In Arthur and Friends: The First Almost Real Not Live CD (or Tape), the music is longer (as seen in "Lyrics" section), being sung the refrain more once and one half.
- In this same version, the full music was remixed and some sounds, for example, lightnings, was deleted.
Goofs
- In the first shot, the "Doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" book cover is in left side of the book, but in the next shot, the cover is in right side.
- In the shot that is sung "[...] I couldn't take it, just couldn't take it...", the Brain's flags was white in left side and red in right side, but after this, the colors are inverted.
- In the part that is sung "[...] The book lady said:...", the Library desk is brown, but in the part sung "[...]I thought...", the desk is miscolored green.
