Billie Jean Single Cover

"Billie Jean" is a song by American recording artist Michael Jackson. It is the second single from the singer's sixth solo album, Thriller (1982). It was written and composed by Jackson and produced by him and Quincy Jones. There are contradictory claims to what the song's lyrics refer to. One suggests that they are derived from a real-life experience, in which a female fan claimed that Jackson had fathered one of her twins. However, Jackson himself stated that "Billie Jean" was based on groupies he had encountered. The song is well known for its distinctive bassline by guitarist David Williams, and Jackson's vocal hiccups. The song was mixed 91 times by audio engineer Bruce Swedien before it was finalized.

Lyrics[]

[1st Verse]

She Was More Like A Beauty Queen From A Movie Scene

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

[2nd Verse]

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

[Bridge]

People Always Told Me Be Careful Of What You Do

And Don't Go Around Breaking Young Girls' Hearts

And Mother Always Told Me Be Careful Of Who You Love

And Be Careful Of What You Do 'Cause The Lie Becomes The Truth

[Chorus]

Billie Jean Is Not My Lover

She's 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

[3rd Verse]

For Forty Days And for Forty Nights

The Law was on her Side

But Who Can Stand When She's In Demand

Her Schemes And Plans

'Cause We Danced On The Floor In The Round

So Take My Strong Advice, Just Remember To Always Think Twice

Do think Twice

[4th Verse]

She Told My Baby We'd Danced 'Til Three

Then She Looked At Me

She Showed A Photo Of A Baby Crying

His Eyes Looked Like Mine

Go On Dance On The Floor In The Round, Baby

[Bridge]

People Always Told Me Be Careful Of What You Do

And Don't Go Around Breaking Young Girls' Hearts

She Came And Stood Right By Me

Then The Smell Of Sweet Perfume

This Happened Much Too Soon

She Called Me To Her Room

[Chorus]

Billie Jean Is Not My Lover

She's Just A Girl Who Claims That I Am The One

But The Kid Is Not My Son

Billie Jean Is Not My Lover

She's 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

She Says I Am The One, But The Kid Is Not My Son

Billie Jean Is Not My Lover

She's 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

She Says I Am The One, She Says He Is My Son

She Says I Am The One

Billie Jean Is Not My Lover

Billie Jean Is Not My Lover

Billie Jean Is Not My Lover

Billie Jean Is Not My Lover

Billie Jean Is Not My Lover

Billie Jean Is Not My Lover
