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 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 - 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: Yeah!!! Sail into night-

ghost 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 - 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... I walk 

alone and stare, man, right in the 

sun - Tear-jerk asylum and 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
