Lyrics
Billie Jean
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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)
