She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene
I said don’t mind, what do you mean, 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
But people always told me be careful of what you do
Don’t go around breaking young girls’ hearts
And mama always told me be careful of who 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 thinks that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
But people always told me be careful of what you do, what you do, what you do
Don’t go around breaking young girls’ hearts
And mama always told me gotta be careful of who you love
Be careful of what you do ’cause the lie becomes the truth
