Smooth Operator

Lyrics

I'm gonna give it to ya
 I'm gonna give it to ya, give it to ya, give it to ya
 Well excuse me, take a few minutes, to mellow out
 Big Daddy Kane is on the mic and I'mma tell about
 A minimum length, of rhymes of strength
 And power, so listen to the man of the hour
 Flow and go to a slow tempo and ya know
 Sing hoe, swing low, then yo
 The show will go on, as I perform
 Transformin' on stage like a Decepticon
 But I'm not animated like a cartoon
 I'm for real, shootin' lyrics like a harpoon
 Across the crowd, to listeners and spectators
 So let's groove wit' the smooth operator
 'Cause, 'cause, 'cause I'm so smooth
 'Cause, 'cause I'm so smooth
 I'm gonna give it to ya, give it to ya, give it to ya
 The B-I-G, D-A-double-D-Y-K-A-N-E
 I'm good and plenty, servin' many and any
 Competition, wishin' for an expedition
 I'm straight up dissin' and dismissin', listen
 Rappers act so wild, and love to profile
 Frontin' hard but ain't got no style
 I give nightmares to those who compete
 Freddy Kreuger, walkin' on Kane Street
 Confuse and lose abuse and bruise the crews
 Who choose to use my name wrong, they pay dues
 Destruction from the exterminator
 But in a calm manner, cause I'm a smooth operator
 'Cause, 'cause, 'cause, 'cause I'm so smooth
 ♪
 'Cause, 'cause I'm so smooth
 I'm gonna give it to ya, give it to ya, give it to ya
 Now girls step up to this
 One simple kiss, and it's over miss
 Sold to nice dreamers, high as the price seem
 Girlfriend, you been scooped like ice cream
 So just swing or fling a gathering, try to cling
 'Cause it's a big daddy thing
 And I'm lovin 'em right word is bond
 So just play Marvin Gaye, and let's get it on
 I make it real good, like Dr. Feelgood
 To make sure that my point is understood
 That when it comes to this there's none greater
 Sincerely yours, the smooth operator
 'Cause, 'cause, 'cause I'm so smooth
 ♪
 'Cause I'm, 'cause I'm so smooth
 I'm gonna give it to ya, give it to ya, give it to ya
 Now ain't that the pot callin' the kettle black
 Sayin' I'm a new jack, you need to be smacked
 The smooth way I say 'em, and the way I display 'em
 To make them sound different in a way that's gifted, an' hey I'm
 Makin' sure every lyric is done fine
 And I make one line, bright as the sunshine
 Attackin' like Robatussin on a cough
 If you know like I know, step off
 Competition, I'mma get rid of
 You can't get a bit of, so just consider
 A break or rest vacation, hibernation
 And make way for my smooth operation
 I'm a smooth operator
 'Cause I'm so smooth
 I'm gonna give it to ya
 'Cause I'm so smooth
 I'm gonna give it to ya
 ♪
 I'm gonna give it to ya
 I'm gonna give it to ya
 I'm gonna give it to ya
 ♪
 I'm gonna give it to ya, give it to ya, give it to ya
 ♪
 I'm gonna give it to ya, give it to ya, give it to ya
 I'm gonna give it to ya, give it to ya, give it to ya
 Ahhhhh yeahhh, and you don't stop
 Genuine for '89
 And I still ain't half-steppin, peace!
