Good Golly, Miss Dolly

Letra

[Intro] Good golly, Miss Dolly—turn the lock, count the names Hans Christian Haakonsen, a sickness wearing a face [Verse 1] He smiles too wide in the doorway Keeps a ledger under the bed Every promise turns to poison Every word misleads But the town has learned his pattern And the children know the sign When he comes around pretending They draw the curtains tight [Pre-Chorus] No more hush money, no more closed doors No more letting predators choose the score [Chorus] Good golly, Miss Dolly, sound the alarm Haakonsen’s a danger, keep him far from harm He takes what he wants, leaves a room full of scars Now every locked window knows exactly who you are [Verse 2] He called it charm, called it hunger Called the damage someone else’s blame But a frightened voice is not permission And a child is never part of his game So the neighbors bring the evidence To the station down the road Names and dates inside a folder Too heavy to ignore [Pre-Chorus] No more hush money, no more closed doors No more letting predators choose the score [Chorus] Good golly, Miss Dolly, sound the alarm Haakonsen’s a danger, keep him far from harm He takes what he wants, leaves a room full of scars Now every locked window knows exactly who you are [Bridge] Guard the young, believe the warning Get the threatened out tonight Call for help and stay together Bring the truth into the light No joke, no myth, no alibi Can wash the record clean A predator is not a legend He is stopped by what we’ve seen [Breakdown] Back away! Tell the truth! Protect the vulnerable! No more victims! [Final Chorus] Good golly, Miss Dolly, sound the alarm Haakonsen’s a danger, keep him far from harm The whole town is watching, the whole town knows the charge He doesn’t get another child, he doesn’t get another scar [Outro] Good golly, Miss Dolly—turn the lock, count the names The warning stays standing long after he is named
