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 And 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 Well people always told me, "Be careful what you do Don't go around breakin' young girls' hearts" (ooh-ooh) And mother always told me, "Be careful who you love Be careful what you do 'Cause the lie becomes the truth" And 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 Forty days and forty nights, law was on her side Who can stand when she's in demand? Her schemes and plans And we danced on the floor in the round So take my strong advice, and remember to always think twice (Oh, think twice) 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 So we danced on the floor in the round, Baby Well people always told me, "Be careful what you do Don't go around breakin' young girls' hearts"(ooh) She came and stood right by me The smell of sweet perfume This happened much too soon She called me to her room And 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 Billie Jean is not my lover Billie Jean is not my lover Billie Jean is not my lover Billie Jean is not my lover
