Something Stupid (Ikari/Langley version)
I know I stand in line, until you think you have the time
To spend an evening with me
Asuka: Damn straight you're waiting in line, BakaShinji!
Shinji: .......
And if we go someplace to dance, I know that there's a chance
You won't be leaving with me
Asuka: I _guarantee_ you won't be leaving with me.
And afterwards we drop into a quiet little place
And have a drink or two
Shinji: But we're still underage.
Asuka: Oh, just shut up and keep singing.
And then I go and spoil it all, by saying something stupid
Like: "I love you"
Asuka: Keep in mind this is just a song.
Shinji: Sure, whatever.
I can see it in your eyes, that you despise the same old lies
You heard the night before
Shinji: You mean the stuff Kaji-san tells Dr. Akagi and Misato-san?
Asuka: Don't be stupi--wait, almost forgot who I'm talking to.
And though it's just a line to you, for me it's true
It never seemed so right before
Asuka: REMEMBER that we're just _singing_ this.
Shinji: But if I don't put any feeling into it, it comes out wrong...
Asuka: Fine, do what you want, just don't get any weird ideas.
I practice every day to find some clever lines to say
Asuka: The day _you_ say something clever, I'm turning in my plugsuit.
To make the meaning come through
But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late
And I'm alone with you
Asuka: Dream on, Mr. Spineless!
The time is right your perfume fills my head, the stars get red
Shinji: Gee, it's the same shade as Ayanami's eyes...
Asuka: Ex_cuse_ me, I'm your partner right now, so forget wonder girl.
And oh the night's so blue
Shinji: Just like Ayanami and Kaworu's hair...
Asuka: Now you're thinking of that _homo_?
And then I go and spoil it all, by saying something stupid
Like: "I love you"
("I love you, I love you,...")
Asuka: It's bad enough to hear you say it once, let alone three times.
Shinji: But you're saying it too.
Asuka: That's different! You sound too..._sincere_ when you say it.
Asuka: Well, how'd you like it? My voice was _perfect_.
Shinji: Actually you sounded pretty awful, even with all the audio
enhancements.
Asuka: What did you say?
Maya: Commander Ikari, Asuka is beating up Shinji.
Gendou: Tell me something new.
Maya: But she's using a _grand piano_!
Gendou: A boy who can't stand up to a girl is no son of mine.
Maya: I can't believe this is happening... Dr. Akagi? We need you here in
the recording studio. Yes, interpersonal conflicts again.
