If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and satire is the lowest 
form of comedy, then filks are surely somewhere in between.

WARNING! The following Evangelion filk may contain extremely bad rhyming 
patterns! (Oh, and some extremely light spoilers, but nothing that will 
matter if you've seen the entire series, and maybe a bit of one of the 
movies if you really want ^_^)

Lonely People
(apologies go to GAINAX, Anno Hideaki, Paul McCartney and John Lennon)
To "Eleanor Rigby" by the Beatles

Ah, look at all the lonely people.
Ah, look at all the lonely people.

Shinji Ikari, pilots an Eva
To fight Angels and please his dad,
Angsty and sad.
Looks at the ceiling, wants to relate
But is frightened of hurting again,
Turns away friends.

All the lonely people, where do they all come from?
All the lonely people, where do they all belong?

Rei Ayanami, feels like a doll
To be played with, but just for a while,
Why won't she smile?
Dies and is reborn, made by Ikari
Gendo as a clone of his wife,
Lives a half-life.

All the lonely people, where do they all come from?
All the lonely people, where do they all belong?

Ah, look at all the lonely people.
Ah, look at all the lonely people.

Asuka Soryuu, wants to be best
At it all so she'll get lots of praise.
Stuck in malaise.
Went catatonic, raped by an Angel
Who broke apart bits of her mind -
What did it find?

All the lonely people, where do they all come from?
All the lonely people, where do they all belong?

Yes, that's it, comments, criticism, and in fact any suggested modifications 
short of altering the basic structure are welcome.
