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
don't go around breaking
young girls' hearts
And mother always told me
be careful of what you love
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
'Cause we danced
on the floor in the round
So take my strong advice
just remember to always 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
'Cause we danced
on the floor in the round
People always told me
be careful of what you do
don't go around breaking
young girls' hearts
She came and stood right by me
Just 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
She's just a I am the one
But the kid is not my son
