I am cunning and malicious and gather strength with age The more I am quoted, the more I am believed.
My victims are helpless. They cannot protect themselves against me because I have no name and no face.
To track me down is impossible The harder you try, the more elusive I become. I am nobody's friend.
Once I tarnish a reputation, it is never the same. I topple governments and wreck marriages.
I ruin careers and cause sleepless nights, heartaches and indigestion. I make innocent people cry in their pillows Even my name hisses
I am called Gossip! I make headlines and headaches. Before you repeat a story, ask yourself....is is true? is it harmless??? is it necessary???...
