Chapter 7: Shut Up
Everyone watched as Ed pulled Al up to the stage, a wide, mischevious grin on his face. Poor Al had no idea what he was getting himself into, but he was eager to follow his brother's lead and have some fun with this. Winry was more than curious. She wondered if he was plotting against her for the show she put on ealier. "This is dedicated to all you people who think you know everything!" chimed Ed and Al sweat dropped. He knew what was about to happen, but he was willing to work with Ed. Everyone exchanged looks.
"Is it me, or was that directed to Mustang?" whispered Breda but was interupted when Ed began singing, he and Al pretending they had guitars.
ED: There you go
You're always so right
It's all a big show
It's all about you
Everyone couldn't help but notice Ed was actually very into this song and a wide grin was on Hughes' face when he noticed Roys annoyed expression.
ED: You think you know
What everyone needs
You always take time
To criticize me
It seems like everyday
I make mistakes
I just can't get it right
It's like I'm the one
You love to hate
But not today
BOTH: So shut up, shut up, shut up
(the brothers start playing their imaginary guitars on the stage as they sing the chorus together and bobbing their heads roughly)
Don't wanna hear it
Get out, get out, get out
Get out of my way
Step up, step up, step up
(They then face each other shouting to each other before turning and going back to their earlier actions)
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today
Is gonna bring me down
AL: There you go
You never ask why
It's all a big lie
Whatever you do
You think you're special
But I know, and I know
And I know, and we know
That you're not
ED: You're always there to point
Out my mistakes
And shove them in my face
It's like I'm the one
You love to hate
But not today
They began playing their fake guitars again, both very into their song, even Al.
BOTH (while faceing each other):So shut up, shut up, shut up
Don't wanna hear it
Get out, get out, get out
Get out of my way
Step up, step up, step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today
Is gonna bring me down
Is gonna bring me down
Will never bring me down
AL: Don't tell me who I should be
And don't try to tell me what's right for me
ED: Don't tell me what I should do
I don't wanna waste my time
I'll watch you fade away
AL: So shut up, shut up, shut up
Don't wanna hear it
Get out, get out, get out
Get out of my way
Step up, step up, step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today
Is gonna bring me down
ED: Shut up, shut up, shut up
Don't wanna hear it
Get out, get out, get out
Get out of my way
Step up, step up, step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today
Is gonna bring me down
AL: Bring me down
ED: shut up, shut up, shut up
AL: Won't bring me down
ED: shut up, shut up, shut up
AL: Bring me down
ED: shut up, shut up, shut up
AL: Won't bring me down
BOTH (and actually Havoc and Breda in the audience): Shut up, shut up, shut up
When they had ended, Ed had a satified grin on his face and everyone was staring at them in shock. Riza was the first to start clapping, an amused smile on her face. "Nice way of expressing yourself, Edward." she said, trying to hold back a laugh.
