Verso 1

She came in from the cold wet
Dropped her luggage bags
Looked the concierge in the eye
Said I need a room for the night
But I don't got no money
Would you take payment of any kind

Pre Coro 1

He said It's alright
I got a room here you can share mine
Make the bed in the morning
And that will do fine
You can change in the bathroom
Hang your clothes on the line
A tear came to her eye
She thought how could he be so kind

Refrain

How could he be so kind
How could he be so kind

Verso 2

She sat down on the bed with a needle
He said how I'd hate to see you bleed out
Just fetch a warm towel
I'll sit with you til you're dry
She started to cry
Saying Why why why why why

Coro

Consider it an indiscriminate
Act of kindness
Consider it an indiscriminate
Act of kindness
Consider it an indiscriminate
Act of kindness

Verso 3

She was cold turkey
He was holding her hand
She said I was ruined by a man
This was never in my plans
I dreamed of men who loved me
Together we'd see the world
But somehow I lost myself among the insults they hurled

Pre Coro 2

I'm sure you’re a wonderful woman
And someday there will surely be someone
So just relax now it's important that you're calm
She said how is it you can see past me as I am

Coro

Consider it an indiscriminate
Act of kindness
Consider it an indiscriminate
Act of kindness
Consider it an indiscriminate
Act of kindness

Puente

When you took your chances
It was like you placed a bet
And sometimes this is
The reward you can get
I was always taught
If you see someone defiled
You should look them in
The eyes and smile
And take their hand or better still
Take them home home home

Verso 4

She awoke early in the morning
Made the bed gathered up her clothes to leave
Saw the concierge curled on the settee
Said what you did for me was hard for me to believe

Pre Coro 3

I was just doing what was right
No one that knows love could leave
You out there on such a night
If you can help someone
Bare this in mind
And consider it an indiscriminate
Act of kindness

Coro

Consider it an indiscriminate
Act of kindness
Consider it an indiscriminate
Act of kindness
Consider it an indiscriminate
Act of kindness

Coro

Consider it an indiscriminate
Act of kindness
Consider it an indiscriminate
Act of kindness
Consider it an indiscriminate
Act of kindness
An indiscriminate act of kindness
