bada bing

And there it is

Bada bing is an exclamation emphasizing that something happened quickly, easily, or as expected—often with a snap of the fingers: You sign the papers, bada bing, you're a homeowner.

Sometimes extended to bada bing bada boom for extra flourish.

The phrase evokes Italian-American speech and was popularized by mob movies and *The Sopranos*.
