"Have you heard of the one about Alfred?
A dangerous robot I'm told.
He's got lazers for eyes and a
microchip brain and his skin is terribly cold."
"We've heard the one about Alfred.
It's strange, amazing, untrue."
"But now that we've heard about Alfred,
we'd like to hear more about you."

"It starts a story,
maybe its true, maybe not.
But once you repeat
it its hard to defeat it
now look at the mess that you've got.
Alfred's a robot, everyone knows.
The story is all over town.
Us rumor weeds know how a rumor can
grow just like a big weed in the ground."
