From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Smooth Operator is the name of a popular song by Sade.

The song's title and subject matter stem from the convoluted Iran-Contra affair.

[edit] Popular culture

"Smooth Operator" was the focus of a segment on Australian comedy variety show Micallef Tonight in 2003. The lyric "Coast to coast / LA to Chicago" was lampooned for its geographical inaccuracy ("good thing she's a smooth operator, not a tour operator" - Shaun Micallef). [1]
