Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't care what you talkin' 'bout baby
I don't care what you say
Don't you come walkin' beggin' back mama
I don't care anyway
Dime after dime I gave you all of my money
No excuses to make
Ain't no mountain that I can't climb baby
All is going my way

'Cause there's a time when you're right
And you know you must fight
Who's laughing baby, don't you know
And there's the choice that we make
And this choice you will take
Who's laughin' baby

So just leave me alone
Leave me alone (leave me alone) (leave me alone)
Leave me alone (leave me alone) (leave me alone) (leave me alone)
Leave me alone, stop it!
Just stop doggin' me around

There was a time I used to say girl I need you
But who is sorry now
You really hurt, you used to take and deceive me
Now who is sorry now
You got a way of making me feel so sorry
I found out right away
Don't you come walkin' beggin' I ain't lovin' you
Don't you get in my way

'Cause there's a time when you're right
And you know you must fight
Who's laughing baby, don't you know
And there's the choice that we make
And this choice you will take
Who's laughin' baby

So just leave me alone
Leave me alone (leave me alone) (leave me alone)
Leave me alone (leave me alone) (leave me alone) (leave me alone)
Leave me alone, stop it!
Just stop doggin' me around

'Cause there's a time when you're right
And you know you must fight
Who's laughing baby, don't you know
And there's the choice that we make
And this choice you will take
Who's laughin' baby

So just leave me alone
Leave me alone (leave me alone) (leave me alone)
Leave me alone (leave me alone) (leave me alone) (leave me alone)
Leave me alone, stop it!
Just stop doggin' me around

So just leave me alone
Leave me alone (leave me alone) (leave me alone)
Leave me alone (leave me alone) (leave me alone) (leave me alone)
Leave me alone, stop it!
Just stop doggin' me around

Don't come beggin' me
Don't come beggin'
Don't come lovin' me
Don't come beggin'
I love you
I don't want it
I don't, I don't, I don't, I
Don't
Don't come beggin' me
Don't come beggin'




Don't come lovin' me
Don't come beggin'

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Leave Me Alone" by Michael Jackson are about a former lover who wants to come back into his life and is begging for forgiveness. Jackson has been hurt in the past, and he is now determined to move on and leave his past behind. Throughout the song, he repeats the phrase "leave me alone" as a statement of his desire to be free from the clingy, toxic relationship that caused him so much heartache.


In the first verse, Jackson makes it clear that he doesn't care what his ex-partner has to say or what excuses she might make. He gave her all his money, but now he has learned his lesson and knows not to let it happen again. Jackson declares that he can overcome any obstacle and win in the end. In the chorus, he asks his former lover to leave him alone and stop harassing him now that he has moved on.


The second verse is a reflection of how Jackson used to feel when he was with his ex. He admits he used to say that he needed her, but now he sees things differently. She hurt him badly and deceived him, but now that he has moved on, she wants him back, but he doesn't want her.


One interesting fact about "Leave Me Alone" is that it was not included in any of Michael Jackson's studio albums, but rather was released as part of his first greatest hits compilation, "Michael Jackson's HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I" in 1995. Another interesting fact is that the song was written entirely by Jackson, who also produced it along with Quincy Jones. It was recorded in 1987 during the "Bad" sessions.


The music video for "Leave Me Alone" features various bizarre and surreal images, including oversized photographs of Jackson's celebrity friends, tabloid headlines, and a roller-coaster ride. The video won a Grammy Award for Best Short Form Music Video and is widely regarded as one of the best videos of Jackson's career.
