Comment (by birgire):

 According to Wikipedia
 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hello,_Dolly!_%28song%29 src]:

 > Hello, Dolly!" is the title song of the popular 1964 musical of the same
 name. Louis Armstrong's version
 > was inducted in the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2001.
 >
 > The music and lyrics were written by Jerry Herman [...]

 So it looks like [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Herman Jerry Herman]
 wrote the original lyrics.

 I assume the plugin is using his exact lyrics (??), so I'm now hesitating
 to modify his original creation in any way. It would also be nice to have
 his name in the description of the plugin.

 I think the solution proposed by @joemcgill is the way to go here, to
 filter the output instead.
