Smooth Operator (Meshell Ndegeocello Version) Lyrics
[Spoken Intro: Eric Schermerhorn]
He's laughing with another girl
And playing with another heart
Placing high stakes
Making heart ache
He's love in seven languages
Diamond nights and ruby light
High in the sky
Heaven help him when he falls...
[Verse 1]
Diamond life lover boy
Move through space with minimum waste, maximum joy
City lights, 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
[Chorus]
No need to ask
Smooth, smooth operator
Smooth, smooth operator
Smooth, smooth operator
[Verse 2]
Coast-to-coast, L.A., Chicago
(Western male)
Across the North and South, Key Largo
Love for sale
Key Largo
Love for sale
Love for sale
He's laughing with another girl
And playing with another heart
Placing high stakes
Making heart ache
He's love in seven languages
Diamond nights and ruby light
High in the sky
Heaven help him when he falls...
[Verse 1]
Diamond life lover boy
Move through space with minimum waste, maximum joy
City lights, 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
[Chorus]
No need to ask
Smooth, smooth operator
Smooth, smooth operator
Smooth, smooth operator
[Verse 2]
Coast-to-coast, L.A., Chicago
(Western male)
Across the North and South, Key Largo
Love for sale
Key Largo
Love for sale
Love for sale
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
A license to love, insurance to hold
Melts all your memories and change into gold
His eyes are like angels when his heart is cold
[Chorus]
No need to ask
Smooth, smooth operator
Smooth, smooth operator
Smooth, smooth operator
Smooth, smooth operator
[Verse 3]
A license to love, insurance to hold
Melts all your memories and change into gold
His eyes are like angels when his heart is cold
[Chorus]
No need to ask
Smooth, smooth operator
Smooth, smooth operator
Smooth, smooth operator
Smooth, smooth operator
