    He's laughing with another girl
    And playing with another heart
    Placing high stakes, making hearts ache
    He's loved in seven languages
    Diamond nights and ruby lights
    High in the sky
    Heaven help him when he falls
    [Verse 1]
    Diamond life lover boy
    He moves 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
    The sentiment is left to chance
    No place to be ending but somewhere to start
    [Chorus]
    No need to ask
    He's a smooth operator
    Smooth operator
    Smooth operator
    Smooth operator
    [Post-Chorus]
    Coast-to-coast, L.A. to Chicago: Western male
    Across the North and South, to Key Largo: love for sale
    [Verse 2]
    Face-to-face, each classic case
    We shadowbox and double-cross
    Yet need the chase
    [Pre-Chorus]
    A license to love, insurance to hold
    Melts all your memories and change into gold
    His eyes are like angels; his heart is cold
    No need to ask
    He's a smooth operator
    Smooth operator
    Smooth operator
    Smooth operator
    [Post-Chorus]
    Coast-to-coast, L.A. to Chicago: Western male
    Across the North and South, to Key Largo: love for sale
    [Outro]

    "Smooth Operator" is about a fashionable, devious man who lives a jet-set lifestyle. He is popular with women and breaks many hearts. The lyrics "Coast to Coast/LA to Chicago/Western Male/Across the North and South to Key Largo/Love for sale" imply that he uses women to obtain his income. It is also clear that he does not hold sincere affection for these women, as Adu sings near the end, "his heart is cold." The video to this song reinforces the message and the operator appears to be a professional criminal. In one scene, he displays a gun to an interested customer and in others, he appears to be a pimp. He succeeds in evading law enforcement, who have him under surveillance.
    This song is noted for Adu's spoken recitation in the song's introduction. Some radio edits have omitted the spoken introduction, and proceeded with the opening sung line of the title of the album, "Diamond Life". Some radio edits have shortened the instrumental saxophone solo, as well as the first repeat of the lines that come after the chorus portions.

She looked like her heart rate never rose about 90 beats per second. Meanwhile, I was at 120 beats per second like I ran a marathon. The absolute best concert I never performed for, but felt like the backup dancer, singer and stage hand. I LOVE SADE!!

    FUN FACT : when she first sent her demo tapes to all the music promotors , she never heard back from them ! It was only when one of them accidently saw her photograph on the cover of a magazine called the face that she was signed up the next day. The same industry that underestimated her voice were overwhelmed by her beauty ! ❤
