Been down yeah!
                    Well I look down and my mind blows away
                       Deep in the darkness "illuminate"
                             Beyond a million miles
                          Something slid up to my head
                    Circling around [in] my eye - eye - eyes
       And I said, "Smooth operator" sez: Get up - get up and outta here,
                           Smooth operator sez: Yeah!
          Lights band the traffic thunder two blocks west of the rest
          Tore away the bottom and saw life is a test [life is a test]
                             Beyond 1,000,000 miles
                       Well I ricocheted through my head
                     One hand kill the other's cra-a-crazy
      What she said - Smooth operator sez: Get up - get up and outta here,
                             Smooth operator sez...
                      Sail into nightghost ship a tripping
                 Struck by the plunge something to see - yeah!
                       Bootleg the girl - she is a looka
                   Pure is the fear that breaks away. [Yeah]
      Straight to the sun I am a walk'n state of the art - all that I see
                                     [Yeah]
      New gods move whipp'n the shore and dash on the reef - surf city...
              [Well] I walk alone and stare, man, right in the sun
            [Yeah!] Tear-jerk asylum and cemetery run [cemetery run]
                     Well, how'd I ever get this far, man?
                       Smooth curves switchback the sweat
         Underneath the body, baby - where what you see is what you...
                                   see and...
what you...
GET!
