The following is rated C, for Confusion. Please read with caution.
There will be three separate voices, namely: (The Choir), The Victim, and The Accuser.

(Playboy) I hate that word, please don't call me that.
(Play) I said I hate that word;
(Boy) PLEASE don't call me that!
(Play) It's not who I am!
(Boy) But it's what you did, Boy!
(Playboy) I said I was sorry, I apologized!
(Playboy) Doesn't change the facts, you did it anyways, Boy!
Done it before? Well, yes, but-
It ain't your first time? No...
(Play) But I promise I won't-
(Boy) I'll never do it again!
(Playboy) It's what you said last time, I remember, true?
(Playboy) Yes, it is, but I promise that I'll-
(Play) Empty promises!
(Boy) Holds no water now!
(Playboy) How do we know you'll truly keep your word?
(Playboy) Please, I beg you, you'll have to trust me!
(Playboy) Listen to him, he sounds so desperate
(Play) Here's what he says:
(Boy) "You'll have to trust me!" HA!
(Playboy) It ain't your first time, 's all the proof we need.
(Play) This is what you've done:
(Boy) You just brought him high,
(Play) Then you kicked him down.
(Boy) More like, tore him out!
(Play) This is what you've done;
(Boy) You must pay the price!
(Playboy) Go on, admit it, you enjoyed it!
(Playboy) How can you say that, I feel awful!
(Playboy) You're just pretending, you know you can't help it!
(PLAY) NO, I HATE IT!
(BOY) WELL, THEN PROVE IT!
(PLAY) LOST FOR WORDS, EH?
(BOY) I THOUGHT SO!
(Playboy) That's all I need, you're just a simpleton.
(Playboy) What did I expect, you're, just, a, (Playboy)
You may have feelings, but you play 'em same.
(Playboy) You better accept it, it's the harsh truth.
(Play) You are one of them.
(Boy) I'm not one of them...
(Play) Dislike it all you want;
(Boy) You're still a- say it, boy!
(Playboy) I- I-... I'm a playboy...
