She was more like a beauty

queen from a movie scene

I said dont 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 what you do

Dont go around breaking

young girls hearts

My mother always told me

be careful who you love

Be careful what you do cause

the lie becomes the truth, yeah

Billie Jean is not my lover

She is 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 for forty

nights the law was on her side

But who can stand when shes in

demand, her schemes and her plans

Cause we danced on the floor in

the round so take my strong advice

Just remember to always

think twice, do think twice

She told my baby we danced til three

And she looked at me

and showed me a photo

My baby cried, his eyes where like mine

Can we dance on the floor in the round?

People always told me

be careful what you do

Dont go around breaking

young girls hearts

But she came and stood right by me

just to smell her sweet perfume

This happened much too soon

she called me to her room

Billie Jean is not my lover

She is 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, not my son
