Lyrics:<\/p>\n
[Verse 1]
\nWell excuse me, take a few minutes, to mellow out
\nBig Daddy Kane is on the mic and I’mma tell about
\nA minimum length, of rhymes of strength
\nAnd power, so listen to the man of the hour
\nFlow and go to a slow tempo and you know
\nSing ho, swing low, then yo the show
\nWill go on, as I perform
\nTransformin on stage like a Decepticon
\nBut I’m not animated like a cartoon
\nI’m for real, shootin lyrics like a harpoon
\nAcross the crowd, the listeners, the spectators
\nSo let’s groove with the smooth operator<\/p>\n
[Hook]
\n“Cause I’m so smooth…”<\/p>\n
The B-I-G, D-A-double-D-Y-K-A-N-E
\nI’m good and plenty, servin many and any
\nCompetition, wishin’ for an expedition
\nI’m straight up dissin’ and dismissin’, listen
\nRappers act so wild, and love to profile
\nFrontin hard but ain’t got no style
\nI give nightmares to those who compete
\nFreddy Kreuger, walkin’ on Kane Street
\nConfuse and lose abuse and bruise the crews
\nWho choose to use my name wrong, they pay dues
\nDestruction from the exterminator
\nBut in a calm manner, cause I’m a smooth operator<\/p>\n
[Hook]
\n“Cause I’m so smooth…”<\/p>\n
[Verse 2]
\nNow girls step up to this
\nOne simple kiss, and it’s over, Miss
\nSold to nice dreamers, high as the price seem
\nGirlfriend, you been scooped like ice cream
\nSo just swing or fling a gathering, try to cling
\nCause It’s a Big Daddy Thing
\nAnd I’m lovin em right, word is bond
\nSo just play Marvin Gaye and Let’s Get It On
\nI make it real good like Dr. Feelgood
\nTo make sure that my point is understood
\nThat when it comes to this there’s none greater
\nSincerely yours… the smooth operator<\/p>\n
[Hook]
\n“Cause I’m so smooth…”<\/p>\n
[Verse 3]
\nNow ain’t that the pot callin’ the kettle black
\nSayin’ I’m a new jack, you need to be smacked
\nThe smooth way I say ’em and the way I display ’em
\nTo make them sound different in a way that’s gifted
\nAnd hey I’m, makin sure every lyric is done fine
\nAnd I make one line, bright as the sunshine
\nAttack you like Robitussin on a cough
\nIf you know like I know — step off
\nCompetition, I’mma get rid of
\nYou can’t get a bit of, so just consider
\nA break or rest, vacation, hibernation
\nAnd make way for my smooth operation
\nI’m a smooth operator<\/p>\n
[Hook]
\n“Cause I’m so smooth…”<\/p>\n
Ahhhhh yeahhh, and you don’t stop
\nGenuine for ’89
\nAnd I still ain’t half-steppin, peace!<\/p>\n
