Lyrics

[Intro]

Aaaaaaaaaaah–

[Verse 1]

Cheat time, open slot

I go to work (Like I said, like I said, like I said, like I said)

A velvet con man

You'll never feel the jerk (Like I said, like I said, like I said, like I said)

[Chorus]

I trolled ya, Jim Dandy

Bogus operandi

My modus, so handy

Nothing but bogus operandi, yeah

[Verse 2]

Foul play, DNA

That is to say (Like I said, like I said, like I said, like I said)

My personality is rotten all the way (Like I said, like I said, like I said, like I said)

[PreChorus]

Mmm, stand to the side when my shit starts breaking

You're gonna think you've gone blind

I only need a moment, and moments come around

You're gonna think you've gone blind

[Chorus]

I trolled ya, Jim Dandy

Bogus operandi

My modus, so handy

Nothing but bogus operandi, yeah

Nothing but bogus operandi, yeah

[Bridge]

You're gonna die

Like I said, like I said

[Bridge]

Like I said, like I said, like I–

Said

[Bridge]

Well, like I said, like I said, like I said, like I said (Come on!)

Well, like I said, like I said, like I said, like I said

[Chorus]

I trolled ya, Jim Dandy

Bogus operandi (Well, like I said, like I said, like I said, like I said)

My modus, so handy

Nothing but bogus operandi, yeah (Well, like I said, like I said, like I said, like I said)

[Outro]

Nothing but bogus operandi, yeah

Nothing but bogus operandi, yeah

Nothing but bogus operandi, yeah

Nothing but bogus operandi, yeah
