[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
Every head turned with eyes that dreamed of bein' the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round

[Pre-Chorus]
People always told me, "Be careful what you do
Don't go around breakin' young girls' hearts"
Mother always told me, "Be careful who you love
Be careful what you do
'Cause the lie becomes the truth," yeah

[Chorus]
Billie Jean is not my lover
She 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

[Verse 2]
For forty days and for forty nights, the law was on her side
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
(Don't think twice) Do think twice!
She told my baby we'd danced 'til three, then she looked at me
Showed a photo, my baby cried, his eyes were like mine
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round, baby
[Pre-Chorus]
People always told me, "Be careful what you do
Don't go around breakin' young girls' hearts"
She came and stood right by me
And the smell of sweet perfume
This happened much too soon
She called me to her room, hey

[Chorus]
Billie Jean is not my lover
She just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
Billie Jean is not my lover
She 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

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
She says I am the one
But the kid is not my son
Billie Jean is not my lover
She 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
[Outro]
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
