Paroles
Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya
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 agent's never there
Your manager has ripped you off and gone somewhere
Standing on the top
Standing on the top (top)
On the top getting down, yeah
Standing on the top, yeah (top)
On the top getting down, Temptations sing
Standing on the top
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Standing on the top
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
When you're on the top
Everyone you meet they wanna 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 a few bucks?)
When you're on the low
Where do all the freaks and fancy people go? (I don't know) I don't know
People sit and stare askin' crazy questions
"Do you braid your hair?" And, "what's L7 squared?"
Standing on the top (top)
On the top getting down, yeah
Standing on the top (top)
On the top getting down, ho
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ah-ooh
Standing on the top (top)
On the top getting down, yeah
Standing on the top (top)
On the top getting down, down, down, down
Standing on the top (sing)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (well, well, well, well, well, well)
Standing on the top (well)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh) standing on the top getting down
Can you understand it? (We understand it)
Can you understand it, what I'm talkin' about?
When I say that funk is here to stay? (We understand it)
Can you understand it, what I'm talkin' about?
That funk is here to stay, oh (we understand it)
If you understand it say, "Yeah" (yeah, yeah, we understand it)
When I say the funk is here to stay, the funk his here to stay
(We want the funk) we want the funk and nothing else will do, nothing else will do, no
(We want the funk) ooh-ooh, we want the funk, nothing but the punk-funk
(We want the funk) ooh, we want the funk and nothing but the funk
(We want the funk) (we want the funk) all we're saying is we want the funk
(We want the funk) we want the funk and nothing else will do (we want the funk)
We want the funk and nothing else will do
(We want the funk) we want the funk and nothing else will do (we want the funk)
We want the funk and nothing else will do
(We want the funk) we want the funk and nothing else will do (we want the funk)
We want the funk and nothing else will do
(We want the funk) we want the funk and nothing else will do (we want the funk)
We want the funk and nothing else will do
Standing on the top
Standing on the top, yeah
Hey, whatcha say? Do you like your funk this way?
Hey, whatcha say? (We like it, we like it) whatcha say?
Hey, whatcha say? Do you like your funk this way?
Hey, whatcha say? (We like it, we like it) whatcha say?
Hey, whatcha say? Do you like your funk this way?
Hey, whatcha say? (We like it, we like it) whatcha say?
Hey, whatcha say? Do you like your funk this way?
Hey, whatcha say? (We like it, we like it)
Blow
Blow
Blow (standing on the top)
Blow
Blow (standing on the top, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)
Hey, whatcha say? Do you like your funk this way?
Hey, whatcha say?
Hey, whatcha say? Do you like your funk this way?
Hey, whatcha say?
Hey, whatcha say? Do you like your funk this way?
Hey, whatcha say? (Good Lord)
Hey, whatcha say? Whatcha say? Whatcha say?
Hey, whatcha say? Whatcha say? Whatcha say? (Say what?)
We want the funk (we want the funk and nothing else)
We want the funk (we want the funk and nothing else)
We want the funk (we want the funk and nothing else)
We want the funk (we want the funk and nothing else)
Mm, everybody in this place tonight
If you feel the funk and you feel alright
Say, "Hey, whatcha say?" (Hey, whatcha say?)
We want the funk and nothing else
(Hey, whatcha say?) We want the funk and nothing else
(Hey, whatcha say?) We want the funk and nothing else
Hey, whatcha say?
