Billie Jean

 

BILLIE JEAN

By Michael Jackson

 

 

[1st Verse]

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

 

[2nd Verse]

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

 

[Bridge]

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

And be careful of what you do ‘cause the lie becomes the truth

 

[Chorus]

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

 

[3rd Verse]

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

(Do think twice – Do think twice)

 

[4th Verse]

She told my baby we’d danced ‘til three

Then she looked at me

Then showed a photo my baby cried his eyes were like mine (oh, no!)

‘Cause we’d danced on the floor in the round, baby

 

[Bridge]

People always told me be careful of what you do

And don’t go around breaking young girls’ hearts

But she came and stood right by me

Then the smell of sweet perfume

This happened much too soon

And she called me to her room

 

[Chorus]

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

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

 

She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son

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

 

She says I am the one (You know what you did)

She says he is my son (Breaking my heart baby)

She says I am the one

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
