They let that devil go nine times And as a consequence Children continued to be molested Does that make any sense He was reported time and time again Since nineteen sixty eight But the system didn’t catch up with him Until it was much too late
Nine times he was reported And still they let him go Charges were unsubstantiated Even thought the children let ‘em know
Children continued being sent To his house of horror Where he wore his cloak of invincibility As if it were an aura And so he cast a shadow of doubt That covered him for decades more Before they were able to figure out He was a molester for sure
Nine times he was reported And still they let him go Charges were unsubstantiated Even though the children let ‘em know
Most of the victimized children Who were forced to endure His personalized brand of terror Aren’t there anymore But new ones came into his lair Just like they did before And this went on year after year But it doesn’t happen anymore
Why did it take seemingly forever For him to get indicted But now that he finally has And his litany has been recited The latest of which involved seven children As well as the family dog It’s a hell of a case they’re finally building Now that they’re in whole hog
Nine times he was reported And still they let him go Charges were unsubstantiated Even though the children let ‘em know
They let that devil go nine times And as a consequence Children continued to be molested Does that make any sense He was reported time and time again Since nineteen sixty eight But the system didn’t catch up with him Until it was much too late
