SMOOTH OPERATOR - 1984 - SADE
Smooth Operator foi lançada como o quarto single do álbum de estréia da cantora Sade, Diamond Life, de 1984. Foi o primeiro Top Ten hit de Sade nos EUA, atingindo o número cinco na Billboard Hot 100 chart por duas semanas em maio de 1985. A canção passou 13 semanas no Top 40, e também liderou a parada Billboard Adult Contemporary por duas semanas. Apesar de "Your Love Is King" permanecer como o maior sucesso de Sade no Reino Unido até hoje, Smooth Operator é o seu maior hit nas paradas dos EUA e seu single de maior sucesso internacional.
Diamond life, lover boy.
We 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, L.A. to Chicago, western Maine.
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, L.A. to Chicago, western Maine.
Across the north and south, to Key Largo, love for sale.
Smooth operator,
Smooth operator,
Smooth operator,
Smooth operator,
Smooth operator...
