I am Fred
I am Fred. That's my name. I ride a bike.
All I hear is Fred-this, Fred-that, what a Fred.
Anyone else named Fred out there who knows what I mean?

I am Fred, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back an' pretend
'cause I've heard it all before
And I've been down there on the floor
No one's ever gonna keep me down again . . .

The helmet didnt fit his head
His bicycle wasnt even red
His legs were hairy
His clothes were scary
Proudly he said, call me Fred

stole your bike
A Fred is someone who can't use the search function.

Just because your name is Fred does not mean the Fred is strong in you, my young Fred.

I would say the OP is an imposter, but he does sound like a Fred.

Your silly fashions I ignore.
I don't care about power-taps
Or glasses under(over?) helmet straps
Intervals sound like a bore,
I ride for fun, and don't keep score.

You say that suffering's what it's about.
Me, I just like to get out
and feel the sunshine
see the sights.
Cycling makes me feel alright.
