Hi, I'll soon have to run for my regular job, so I limit my reply to alignAbove/BelowContext.

In short, because you told LilyPond to do so ;) More verbose (with pseudo code), look at what you did and how LilyPond understands it: (1) you typed: Staff Lyrics1 Lyrics2 Lyrics3 Lyrics4 (2) then you told to place Lyrics1 right above Staff: Lyrics1 align-right-above-Staff Staff Lyrics2 Lyrics3 Lyrics4 (3) then you told to place Lyrics2 right above Staff: Lyrics1 Lyrics2 align-right-above-Staff Staff Lyrics3 Lyrics4 (4) then you told to place Lyrics3 right below Staff (same output as before): Lyrics1 Lyrics2 Staff Lyrics3 align-right-below-Staff Lyrics4 (5) then you told to place Lyrics4 right below Staff Lyrics1 Lyrics2 Staff Lyrics4 align-right-below-Staff Lyrics3 All done as specified. Maybe someone can step in for the spacing, I'll be back in the evening.
