Lyrics

Na, na Na, na, na, na, na When you're on the top There's no place you can really go but down, down, down People on the street congratulate you They say they love the way you sound, well When you're on the low No one wants to chit or chat or even know your name Your ego's never there Your manager has dipped you out and gone somewhere Standing on the top Standing on the top On the top getting down, yeah Standing on the top, yeah On the top getting down, Temptations sing Standing on the top Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Standing on the top Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh When you're on the top Everyone you meet, they want to be your long-lost friend They say how great you are, a superstar But do you have any money to lend? (Hey, man, can you loan me two bucks?) When you're on the low Where do all the great and splendid people go? (I don't know) I don't know People sit and stare Ask the crazy question "Where you get your hair And what's your Southern square?", oh Standing on the top On the top getting down, yeah Standing on the top On the top getting down, ho Standing on the top On the top getting down, yeah Standing on the top On the top getting down, down, down, down Standing on the top, sing Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Well, well, well, well, well, well Standing on the top Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Standing on the top getting down Can you understand it?
