When a coward bares his chest When a miser starts to spend When a flippant falls in love When a rapist marries his victim When an egoist cares for others When an atheist surrenders to God When a thief replaces his loot When a rioter makes good the loss When a drunkard smashes his bottle When a student bears canning with a smile When sulkers make amends again When an imposter reveals his identity When a scamster whistle-blows self When a liar confesses When a man breaks down It may sound absurd. But sometimes, it feels good For those who do What they do.
