[Verse]
 ( 
She was more l

: |    
ike a beauty q

    |)
ueen from a mo

vie 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 a

            
m the one who 

              
will dance on 

              
the floor in t

        
he round"

She told me her name was Billie Jean as she caused a scene
              
Then every hea

              
d turned with 

              
eyes that drea

              
med of being t

   
he one
              
Who will dance

              
 on the floor 

       
in the round


[Pre-Chorus]
             
People always 

             
told me, "Be c

#
areful of what

 you do
             
And dont go ar

              
ound breaking 

            
young girls he

  
arts"
             
And mother alw

              
ays told me, "

   
Be careful of 

who you love
             
And be careful

              
 of what you d

            
o cause the li


e becomes the 

truth"


[Chorus]

Billie Jean is

 not my lover
              
Shes just a gi

              
rl who claims 

              
that I am the 


one
              
But the kid is

        
 not my son
              
She says I am 

            
the one but th

              
e kid is not m

  
y son


[Verse]
(Synths: |  | -   |  |)
 
For forty days

 and forty nig

hts, law was o

n her side
                              (Synths:               )
              
But who can st

              
and when shes 

              
in demand, her

             
 schemes and p


lans
              
Cause we dance

              
d on the floor

        
 in the round
              
So take my str

            
ong advice, ju

              
st remember to

              
 always think 


twice

Do think twice, do think twice

But she came a

              
nd stood right

This happened 

              
much too soon;

     
 she called me

 to her room
