Removing a Wart

I know that thinking out loud, rough drafts, and what-not are par for this blog, but it bothered me to leave the scuzz line in my last post just hanging there, so here's the fix. Improves the dramatic flow a bit, too:

I would like to clear up some confusion—
Rumors have arisen, here and there.
Goodness only knows
How a rumor grows—
Nonetheless, I'd like the clear the air.
Now, listen:

Me, I'm not Rambo.
Don't be fooled by all the buzz.
Me? I'm not Rambo.
Did you think—? Well, everybody does!
We've both got attitude;
We tend to strut;
We're never rude—
We simply kick butt.
But
Me—I'm not Rambo.
Just in case you thought I was.
