He's A Regular Jekyll And Hyde Poem by Francis Duggan

He's A Regular Jekyll And Hyde



Most say that the man is God fearing and that he leads a clean and good life
But if you want to know more about him perhaps you should ask his ex wife
For her's is a different story and bad memories of him she can only recall
And who would know him better than her since she's lived with him after all.

She recalls her disastrous marriage to him it lasted just over a year
And he was one who often hit her of him she was living in fear
But when he is amongst the public a different self he does portray
And he goes to church every sunday to worship and to his God pray.

Some men can be cruel and deceitful and their true selves from others they hide
And he is that sort of a fellow a regular Jekyll and Hyde
The others have never lived with him and his ex wife the one who knows him best
And she has such bad memories of him and he is one she does detest.

The person you see not the real thing how often has that been the case
You cannot judge one by his manner or by the big smile on his face
And this bloke one glaring example some see him as a living saint
But his ex wife the one who lived with him their image of him only taint.

He is a community leader and others think highly of him
And he comes across as warm and friendly and nothing about him seems grim
But his ex wife the one who lived with him says his real self from others he hide
And that his public face is a false face he's a regular Jekyll and Hyde.
