Well excuse me, take a few minutes, to mellow out
|
Big Daddy Kane is on the mic and I'ma 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 you 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, the listeners, the spectators
|
So let's groove with the smooth operator
|
|
"cause I'm so smooth..." --> Rakim
|
(repeat 2X)
|
|
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 I'm so smooth..." --> Rakim
|
(repeat 2X)
|
|
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 I'm so smooth..." --> Rakim
|
(repeat 2X)
|
|
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
|
and hey I'm, makin sure every lyric is done fine
|
And I make one line, bright as the sunshine
|
Attack you like Robatussin on a cough
|
If you know like I know -- step off!
|
Competition, I'ma 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..." --> Rakim
|
(repeat 2X)
|
|
Ahhhhh yeahhh, and you don't stop
|
Genuine for eighty-nine
|
And I still ain't half-steppin, peace!
