SINGER: Whitney Houston

SONG:Same Script, Different Cast

Whitney:
Oh, eh deb

Deborah:
Mmm, mmm

Whitney
Thank you for being well enough to come

Deborah:
Whitney, what is this all about?

Whitney:
I know he's leaving me for you

Deborah:
Who said that? who told you that is true?

Whitney:
What is he telling you?

Could it be the same things that he told me?

Deborah:
He told me that he loved me

Whitney:
I heard that

Deborah:
He told me i was beautiful
How did you know? how did you know?

Whitney:
Cuz i've played this scene before

Whitney:
This is is a retake of my life
I was his star for many nights
Now the roles have changed
And you're the leading lady in his life
Lights, camera now you're on
Just remember you've been warned
Enjoy it now, cuz this won't last
Same script, different cast

Deborah:
What you're saying could be true,
But how can i take advice from you?

Whitney:
I'm not hating, but i wish the one before me
Would have warned me too babe

Deborah:
Don't say no more
La la la la la la la la la la

Whitney:
Uncover your ears, girl

Deborah:
I'm not listening
La la la la la la la la la la

Whitney:
But i know you hear me
Maybe my reasons are wrong,
But i know that you believe me

Whitney:
This is is a retake of my life
I was his star for many nights
Now the roles have changed
And you're the leading lady in his life
Lights, camera now you're on
Just remember you've been warned
Enjoy it now, cuz this won't last
Same script, different cast

Deborah:
It's your fault you didn't love him enough

Whitney:
That's the problem, i love him too much
And when you love him,
He becomes unattracted to you

Deborah:
Oh no he's changed and i'll prove you wrong

Whitney:
No you won't

Both:
So go away!

Deborah:
Leave us the hell alone
He loves me

Whitney:
He'll play you

Deborah:
He'll stay with me

Whitney:
He'll leave you

Both:
For sure, for sure

Whitney:
This is a retake of my life
I was his star for many nights
Now the roles have changed
And you're the leading lady in his life
Lights, camera now you're on
Just remember you've been warned
Enjoy it now, because this won't last
No, same script, different cast

Deborah:
This is is a retake of your life
You were his star for many nights
But now the roles have changed
And i'm the leading lady in his life
Lights, camera now you're on
Just remember you've been warned
Enjoy it now, cuz this will last
I'm his future, you're his past

Whitney:
This is is a retake of my life
I was his star for many nights
Now the roles have changed
And you're the leading lady in his life
Lights, camera now you're on
Just remember you've been warned
Enjoy it now, cuz this won't last
Same script, different cast
