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 would dance, on the floor, in the round
She said I am the one
Who would dance, on the floor, in the round
She said her name was Billie Jean, as she caused a scene
And every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one
Who would dance, on the floor, in the round
And people always told me
Be careful what you do
Don't go round breaking young girls' hearts
And mother always told me
Be careful who you love
Be careful what you do before the lie...
The lie becomes the truth
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl
Who says that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one
But the kid is not my son
For forty days and forty nights
The law was on her side
But who can stand when she's in demand
Her schemes and her plans
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round
So take my strong advice
Remember to always think twice
Do think twice!
She told my baby that we danced till three, then she looked at me
Showed a photo my baby cried his eyes were just like mine
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round
People always told me be careful of what you do
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
Then she stood right by me
The smell of sweet perfume
This happened much too soon, she called me to her room
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who says that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one
So take my strong advice
And remember to always think twice
Do think twice!
