Lyrics
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

The legend is true. Blacks don't crack. I'm envious. I love her. New fan after I heard her song in my uber
I’m a 60 ish heterosexual woman with 2 grown daughters and a young granddaughter. I’ve adored Sade always and I think some of the newer artists could take a lesson from this genuine lady. She’s pure talent and class. The best role model as far as we want to have our children and ourselves for that matter, having artists for role models. You know what I mean ? The real role model is in our faith. Bless this sweet Sade ❤️🌹

Beautiful sexy sensual talented mysterious but also very humble how can you not fall in love with her Sade forever ❤
Be so many less break ups in this world if women acted more like this elegant lady. So enticing with that voice
We have been doing some research on how Sade came into being. Evidently all started for Sade at the Hull Royal Disabled Club in 1981when my father, a singer himself performed at the Hull Royal Disabled Club in 1981 and bumped into Stuart Mathewmans mother. She was a volunteer there and informed him that Stuart was moving to London. I had been in London for a year then with my band and made contact with Stuart and we both auditioned for Pride where we met Helen Adu for the first time. However Sade wasn't complete until I explained the whereabouts of Paul Denman to SM and we both went to invite him to join Pride which he did. PD was about to go back to Hull and pick up his old job at the BAE factory. So you could say that my father and myself had been very influential in bringing Sade together in 1981. I am sure Helen will thank us at some point in the future when she realises how grateful she is to us for her career starting in 1981.
Fabulous , way better than the original and I have fell in LOVE with her AGAIN after so many years
Relaxing and nice
She has such a unique, intriguing voice! I loved this song the first time I heard it. Right behind it is "The Sweetest Taboo".
Bellaaaaaaaaa SADE!!!!!!
Queen, as always, who has no equal in this performance. Bravo dear, you are super for all years and centuries
Happy Birthday Sade!

This group is fantastic elegant music SADE has an sweet and personal voice she is most beatiful and sensual singer i ha e ever seen
