Ey rot op met shirak man

3-0, dit is jantje (ja)
Ik ben poppin′ like a bottle of champagne (wat)
Wil niet stoppen nu want alles hier is kantjes (ja, 1, 2)
3-0 dit is Jantje, ey
3-0 dit is Jantje (3-0)
Ik ben poppin' like a bottle of champagne (pop pop)
Wil niet stoppen nu want alles hier is kantjes (ja, 1, 2)
3-0 dit is Jantje (wat?)

073 wat is wat (wat?)
Nu al de populairste rapper van m′n stad (ja ja)
Als ik pull up op een fissa ligt ie plat (plat)
073 wat is wat (wat?!)
3-0 is de code (code)
En jouw kleding is al jaren uit de mode (ja ja)
Je carrière is gelogen (ja)
Jij doet mee voor spek en bonen (bonen)
Raak mijn naam maar gewend (gewend)
Ik ben meer dan een trend (ja)
Ik ben de hottest in de tent (wat?)
Deze tatta wordt bekend (ja)

3-0, dit is jantje (ja)
Ik ben poppin' like a bottle of champagne (wat)

Ik ben poppin' like a bottle of champagne (pop pop)
Wil niet stoppen nu want alles hier is kantjes (ja, 1, 2)
3-0 dit is Jantje (wat?)

Maak een klapper als een roos
Ja ikke maak je boos
Ik rap boven mijn niveau
Genoeg truken in die doos
En ik kaap die goede hoop
Met jezelf in de knoop
Ik ga op als rook
Fucking herder ben een goat (goat)
Wordt gehacked alsof ik vloed ben
Kroonprins, nu alsof ik in die koets ben
(In die koets ey)
En al die jongens vallen uit de maat
Ik kan alleen vallen in de smaak
Want ik heb mijn iq hoger dan mijn saldo (wow)
Vind me in de boeken net als waldo (oh waar?)
Onvoldoende maar toch teken ik bij Kanto (check)
En nu wordt ik gedraaid als een salto (wat?)

3-0, dit is jantje (ja)

Wil niet stoppen nu want alles hier is kantjes (ja, 1, 2)
