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 being 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
and mother always told me 
be careful of who you love
and 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
who will 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 we'd danced till three
then she looked at me
then showed a photo my baby cried 
his eyes were like mine (oh no)
go on dance on the floor in the round baby

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
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

solo
she says I am the one
but the kid is not my son

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

she says I am the one
she says he is my son
breaking my heart babe

Billie Jean is not my lover
