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

Gonna 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 being the one

Gonna dance on the floor in the round



People always told me be careful of what you do

Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts

And mother always told me be careful of who you love

Be careful of what you do 'cause the lie becomes the truth



Billie Jean is not my lover

She's just a girl who claims 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 plans

Gonna dance on the floor in the round

So take my strong advice, just remember to always think twice

Do think twice



She told my baby that's a threat

As she looked at me

Then showed a photo of a baby cries

Eyes would like mine

Gonna 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

She came and stood right by me

Then 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 claims that I am the one

But the kid is not my son

So take my strong advice, just remember to always think twice

Do think twice
