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 She said I am the one
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
And people always told me be careful of what you do And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts My mother always told me be careful of who you love And be careful of what you do because the lie becomes the truth
And Billie Jean is not my lover She's just a girl who thinks that I am the one But the kid is not my son But the kid is not my son
She thinks that I am the one
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 So take my strong advice, do think twice
She told my baby we'd danced 'til three Then she looked at me She showed me a photo of a baby crying His eyes looked like mine Go on dance on the floor in the round
And people always told me be careful of what you do And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts And she came and stood right by me Then the smell of sweet perfume And this happened much too soon She brought me to her room
And Billie Jean is not my lover She's just a girl who thinks that I am the one But the kid is not my son But the kid is not my son
