He's laughing with another girl
   And playing with another heart
   Placing high stakes, making hearts ache
   He's loved in seven languages
   Jewel box life diamond nights and ruby lights, high in the sky
   Heaven help him, when he falls
   Diamond life, lover boy
   He move in space with minimum waste and maximum joy
   City lights and business nights
   When you require streetcar desire for higher heights
   No place for beginners or sensitive hearts
   When sentiment is left to chance
   No place to be ending but somewhere to start
   No need to ask
   He's a smooth operator
   Smooth operator, smooth operator
   Smooth operator
   Coast to coast, LA to Chicago, western male
   Across the north and south, to Key Largo, love for sale
   Face to face, each classic case
   We shadow box and double cross
   Yet need the chase
   A license to love, insurance to hold
   Melts all your memories and change into gold
   His eyes are like angels but his heart is cold
   No need to ask
   He's a smooth operator
   Smooth operator, smooth operator
   Smooth operator
   Coast to coast, LA to Chicago, western male
   Across the north and south, to Key Largo, love for sale
   Smooth operator, smooth operator
   Smooth operator, smooth operator
   Smooth operator, smooth operator
   Smooth operator, smooth operator
   Smooth operator, smooth operator
