Buy the Rumor, Sell the News

Anyone who says he can see through women is missing a lot.

― Groucho Marx

 

Rumor has it that God loves us.

Or at least that perhaps She might.

She, in fact, is quite uncertain,

Doing Her best to get things right.

 

We should never credit rumor,

Taking a chance on what it means.

It's best though to heed it sooner;

The news is seldom what it seems!

 

Hearsay has a thousand faces,

You can't be sure which one is true.

Me, I trust in Innuendo—

That donna sure knows what to do!

 

Had you placed a bet on rumor,

The world would hardly end today.

Sell short the news. You'll save a life.

Don't try to catch a falling knife!
