She was more like a beauty queen from a movie screen 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 said her name was billie jean, as she caused a scene Then all aheads 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 Momma always told me be careful of who you love Be careful of what you do before the lie... lie becomes the truth Billie jean is not my lover She's just a girl who says 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 shes in demand Her schemes and her plans cause we danced on the floor in the round So take my strong advice, remember to always think twice (do think twice) She told my baby that we'll dance 'till 3:00 And she looked at me, she 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 And she stood right by me 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 says 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 So take my strong advice and remember to always think twice (do think twice)
