Billie Jean

Michael Jackson

She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene

I said, "Don't mind, but what do you mean, I am the one

Who will dance on the floor in the round?"

She said I am the one

Who will dance on the floor in the round

She told me her name was Billie Jean as she caused a scene

Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of bein' the one

Who will dance on the floor in the round

People always told me, "Be careful of what you do

And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts" (hee-hee)

And mother always told me, "Be careful of who you love

And be careful of what you do (oh-oh)

'Cause the lie becomes the truth" (oh-oh), hey-ey

Billie Jean is not my lover, uh

She's just a girl who claims that I am the one (oh, baby)

But the kid is not my son (hoo)

She says I am the one (oh, baby)

But the kid is not my son (hee-hee-hee, oh, no, hee-hee-hee,

hoo)

For 40 days and for 40 nights, the law was on her side

But who can stand when she's in demand? Her schemes and plans

'Cause we danced on the floor in the round (hee)

So take my strong advice

Just remember to always think twice

(Don't think twice) do think twice (a-hoo)

She told my baby we'd danced 'til three, then she looked at me

Then showed a photo of a baby cryin', his eyes were like mine

(oh, no)

'Cause we danced on the floor in the round, baby (ooh, hee-hee-

hee)

People always told me, "Be careful of what you do And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts"

Don't break no hearts (hee-hee)

But she came and stood right by me

Just the smell of sweet perfume (ha-oh)

This happened much too soon (ha-oh, ha-ooh)

She called me to her room (ha-oh, hoo), hey-ey

Billie Jean is not my lover (hoo)

She's just a girl who claims that I am the one

But the kid is not my son

No-no-no, no-no, no-no-no (hoo)

Billie Jean is not my lover, uh

She's just a girl who claims that I am the one (oh, baby)

But the kid is not my son (no, no)

She says I am the one (oh, baby)

But the kid is not my son (no, hee-hee-hee, ah, hee-hee-hee)

Hee, hoo

She says I am the one

But the kid is not my son (no, no, no, hoo, oh)

Billie Jean is not my lover, uh

She's just a girl who claims that I am the one

(You know what you did to me, baby)

But the kid is not my son, no-no-no-no (no-no-no, ah)

She says I am the one (no)

But the kid is not my son (no-no-no-no) (hoo)

She says I am the one (hoo) (you know what you did)

She says he is my son (breakin' my heart, babe)

She says I am the one

Yeah, Billie Jean is not my lover, uh

Yeah, Billie Jean is not my lover, uh

Yeah, Billie Jean is not my lover, uh (she is just a girl)

Yeah, Billie Jean is not my lover, uh (don't call me Billie

Jean, hoo)

Yeah, Billie Jean is not my lover, uh (she's not what she seems)

Billie Jean is not (hee, oh)
