[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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
Be careful of what you do
'Cause the lie becomes the truth"
Hey-ay

[Chorus]
Billie Jean is not my lover, hoo
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son, hoo
She says I am the one
But the kid is not my son
[Verse 2]
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
Take my strong advice
Just remember to always think twice
(Do think twice, do 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 looked like mine (Oh, no)
Do a dance on the floor in the round

[Pre-Chorus]
People always told me, "Be careful of what you do
And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts"
(Don't break no heart)
But she came and stood right by me
With the smell of sweet perfume
This happened much too soon
She called me to her room, hey-ay

[Chorus]
Billie Jean is not my lover, hoo
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
(No no no, a-no no, a-hoo)
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 (Daggone it)
She says I am the one (Hee, hee)
But the kid is not my son
A-hee hee hee
[Bridge]
Hee, woo

[Chorus]
She says I am the one
But the kid is not my son (No, no, no, oh)
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
(No, you didn't dance with me, baby)
But the kid is not my son
(No no no, no no)
She says I am the one (Go with your kid, baby)
But the kid is not my son (Go with your kid, yeah)

[Outro]
She says I am the one (You know what you did)
She says he is my son (Breaking my heart, babe)
She says I am the one
Billie Jean is not my lover (OW)
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover (Hoo)
Billie Jean is not my lover (Don't call me Billie Jean)
Billie Jean is not my lover (None of what you see)
Billie Jean is not my lover (Hee)
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
