She was more like A beauty queen from a movie scene I said, "Don't mind me But 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 (ooh) Don't go around Breaking young girls' hearts, no" And mamma always told me "Be careful who you love Be careful of what you do (oh-oh-oh) 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 for forty nights 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 So take my strong advice Just remember to always think twice Oh, think twice She told my baby we danced til three And she looked at me Then showed a photo Baby cried, his eyes were like mine, oh no Because we danced on the floor in the round People always told me "Be careful of what you do (ooh-ooh) Don't go around Breaking young girls' hearts, no" But she came and stood right by me (oh) With the smell of sweet perfume It happened much too soon (oh-oh-oh) She called me to her room, hey 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 So, Billie Jean is not my lover (she's just a girl) Billie Jean is not my lover (she's just a girl) Billie Jean is not my lover
