Smooth Operator

(Mastad/CASTRO)



Every time when I come back to make things right it all goes wrong


I was good and ready, as ready as can be

I was counting my fingers, 1 - 2 - 3

I live in Denial, it’s where I wanna live

My face is on trial, so baby please forgive that


Every time when I come back to make things right it all goes wrong


I used to be a hardliner, I used to be a fool

Until I realised that compromise is cool

I am the spider, my web is a piece of art

My poison is the key to take you back to start


Every time when I come back to make things right it all goes wrong

Smooth Operator is my favourite song


No for answer, doesn’t work you see

I’m tougher than cancer, you won’t get rid of me

You can do the chemo, have radical surgery

But I will be back my friend, so please tell me why


Every time when I come back to make things right it all goes wrong


I can do the roses, I can polish my shoes

I’ll be sharp and up to date on the latest news

I can do the jewellery, the man with the plan

I cross my fingers, but I just don’t understand why


Every time when I come back to make things right it all goes wrong

Smooth Operator is my favourite song


Every time when I come back to make things right it all goes wrong
