He move in space with minimum waste and maximum joy

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
