Could you help me with this script that won't work?

I made a script to change the text of a Textbox on a SurfaceGui.

print "Screen Changer Loaded!"

Screen = Workspace.TheScreen.SurfaceGui.TextLabel.Text

while true do
    Screen = "Donuts and coffee, at their best."
    Wait(7)
    Screen = "Scrumptious, Delectable donuts!"
    Wait(7)
    Screen = "Welcome to the interview office!"
    Wait(7)
    Screen = "We wish you good luck at your interview!"
    Wait(7)

end

It does not work and I need help.

If that doesn't work, then change "Screen" at the beginning to "local Screen" c0des 207 — 10y

If you want it in a table, so you can easily edit/add in extra phrases; similar to an admin list!

print "Screen Changer Loaded!"

local scr = game.Workspace.TheScreen.SurfaceGui.TextLabel
wordsToSay = {"Donuts and coffee, at their best.", "Scrumptious, Delectable donuts!", "Welcome to the interview office!", "We wish you good luck at your interview!"}

while true do
    for i = 1, #wordsToSay do
    scr.Text = wordsToSay[i]
    wait(7)
    end
end

you to set it as:

print "Screen Changer Loaded!"
Screen.text = Workspace.TheScreen.SurfaceGui.TextLabel.Text
while true do
    Screen.text = "Donuts and coffee, at their best."
    Wait(7)
    Screen.text = "Scrumptious, Delectable donuts!"
    Wait(7)
    Screen.text = "Welcome to the interview office!"
    Wait(7)
    Screen.text = "We wish you good luck at your interview!"
    Wait(7)

if this doesnt work change .text to .Text
