Top Rankin'
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They don't want to see us unite
All they want us to do is keep on fussing and fighting
They don't want to see us live together
All they want us to do is keep on killing one another
Top rankin', top rankin'
Are you skankin' (skankin', skankin')? Are you skankin' (skankin', skankin')?
Wo-ho, top rankin' (top rankin')
'Ow, did you mean what you say now? Are you? 'ow are you (rankin', rankin')
Are ya? Lord, Lord, Lord (skankin', skankin')?
They say the blood runs
And it runs through our line
And our heart, heart of heart divine, eh!
And John saw them comin', ooh! - a with the truth. From an ancient time
The brotherly love (brotherly love), the sisterly love (sisterly love)
I feel this morning, I feel this morning
Brotherly love (brotherly love), the sisterly love (sisterly love)
I feel this morning, this morning, hey!
They don't want us to unite
All they want us to do is keep on fussing and fighting
They don't want to see us live together
All they want us to do is keep on killing one another
Top rankin' (top rankin')!
Did you mean what you say now? (Top rankin')
Are you skankin' (skankin', skankin')
Are you skankin' (skankin', skankin')
Top rankin' (top ranking)
Did you (top rankin') mean what you say now (top rankin')
Are you? (rankin', rankin)
Are you? (Skankin', skankin')
Top rankin' (top rankin')
Top rankin' (top rankin')
Are you? (skankin', skankin')
'Ow are you? (skankin', skankin')
