Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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 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
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
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
For forty days and 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
(Don't think twice, don't think twice)
She told my baby we'd danced till three, then she looked at me
Then showed a photo my baby cried his eyes were like mine (oh, no)
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round, baby
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
Just the 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 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
You know what you did, (she says he is my son) breaking my heart babe
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 (don't Billie Jean)
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not my lover
The lyrics to Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean" tell a story of a young girl who confronts him, claiming that he is the father of her child. Jackson vehemently denies the claim, saying that she is not his lover and that the kid is not his son. The song portrays the toxic nature of fame and how celebrities often fall prey to false accusations and rumors. The lyrics also speak to the dangers of promiscuity and the need for caution when choosing partners.
Throughout the song, Jackson discusses the pressures of being a celebrity, including the callous advice he receives ("take my strong advice, just remember to always think twice") and the relentless demands of fans ("who can stand when she's in demand?"). He references his mother’s lessons to be careful of who he loves and to consider the consequences of his actions, warning listeners that “the lie becomes the truth.” Ultimately, Jackson denies any involvement with Billie Jean and insists that she is not his lover.
Overall, "Billie Jean" is a powerful commentary on the dangers of fame and the need for caution when dealing with relationships. It also serves as an important reminder that false accusations can have real consequences and that it is essential to always consider the truth before making judgments.
