\version "2.18.2"
{
\once \override TextScript.outside-staff-priority = #500  
\once \override Script.outside-staff-priority = #450  

c''  ^Text

}
 
Setting outside-staff-priority turns Script objects into "outside-staff-objects"
and their position can then be controlled relative to TextScript objects.

Then, to control the relative position of several Script objects at the same
musical moment, \tweak their script-priority values, or (not shown) to
place two Script objects above and below a TextScript object \tweak
their outside-staff-priority.
