Billie Jean
Michael Jackson Lyrics
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
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 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
(Do think twice, do think twice)
She told my baby we'd danced 'til 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

“Billie Jean" is a song by American recording artist Michael Jackson, released by Epic Records on January 2, 1983 as the second single from his sixth studio album, Thriller (1982). It was written and composed by Jackson, and produced by Jackson and Quincy Jones.
The song's spare, bass-driven arrangement helped pioneer what one critic called "sleek, post-soul pop music". It also introduced a more paranoid lyrical style for Jackson, a trademark of his later music.

The song's spare, bass-driven arrangement helped pioneer what one critic called "sleek, post-soul pop music". It also introduced a more paranoid lyrical style for Jackson, a trademark of his later music. The lyrics describe a woman, Billie Jean, who claims that the narrator is the father of her newborn son, which he denies. Jackson said the lyrics were based on groupies' claims about his older brothers when he toured with them as the Jackson 5.
Jackson's performance of "Billie Jean" on the TV special Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever, which aired in May 1983, won acclaim and was nominated for an Emmy Award. The performance introduced a number of Jackson's signatures, including the moonwalk and white sequinned glove, and was widely imitated. The "Billie Jean" music video, directed by Steve Barron, was the first video by a black artist to be aired in heavy rotation on MTV. Along with the other videos produced for Thriller, it helped establish MTV's cultural importance and make music videos an integral part of pop music marketing.
"Billie Jean" was one of the bestselling singles of 1983, helping Thriller become the best-selling album of all time, and became Jackson's best-selling solo single. In the United States, it remained at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 for seven weeks. It also reached number one in the United Kingdom and several other European countries, and reached the top ten in many other countries. It was awarded honors including two Grammy Awards and an American Music Award. "Billie Jean" was critically acclaimed; in 2004, Rolling Stone placed it at number 58 on its list of the 500 greatest songs of all time.

I love this song
Yadira
Ella era más qué una bella reina de la escena de una película
Dije no me preocupo, pero qué quieres decir con que yo soy el único
Quien bailara en el piso en la ronda
Ella dijo que soy el unico
Quien bailara en el piso en la ronda
Ella me dijo que su nombre era Billie jean
Mientras causaba una escena
Entonces cada cabeza
Con ojos que sonaban ser el unico
Quien bailara el piso en la ronda
La gente siempre me dijo
Ten cuidado con lo que haces
No vayas rompiendo corazones de jovencitas
Y mi madre siempre me dijo ten cuidado a quien amas ten cuidado con lo que haces
Por que la mentira se convierte en la verdad
Billie jean no es mi amante ella es solo una chica que dice que soy el unico
Pero el niño no es mi hijo
Ella dice que soy el unico pero el niño no es mi hijo
Etc....

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
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"
"Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts" (Hee-eeh)
And mother always told me, "Be careful of who you love"
"And be careful of what you do" (Oh, oh)
"'Cause the lie becomes the truth" (Oh, oh)
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one (Oh, baby)
But the kid is not my son, hoo!
She says I am the one (Oh, baby)
But the kid is not my son
(Hee-hee-hee, no, no, hee-hee-hee)
Hoo
For 40 days and for 40 nights, I 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, hee
So take my strong advice
Just remember to always think twice
(Do think twice)
Do think twice (Ah-hoo)
She told my baby we'd danced 'til three, then she looked at me
Then showed a photo of a baby crying, his eyes were like mine (Oh, no)
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round, baby
(Ooh, hee-hee-hee)
People always told me, "Be careful of what you do"
"And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts" (Don't break no hearts)
But she came and stood right by me
Then the smell of sweet perfume (Oh, no)
This happened much too soon (Oh, no)
She called me to her room (Hoo)
Billie Jean is not my lover (Hoo)
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
No-no-no, no-no-no-no-no-no, hoo
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one (Oh baby)
But the kid is not my son (No, no)
She says I am the one (Oh, baby)
But the kid is not my son (No, hee-hee)
Hee
Hoo
She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son
No-no-no, hoo (Oh)
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
No-no-no, no-no-no-no
She says I am the one
But the kid is not my son (No-no-no)
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
Billie Jean is not my lover
Billie Jean is not

I've been in love with this song since I was 3. Michael's vocals over Quincy's instrumentals was pure magic. I actually just sampled this beat myself on my newest 90s-styled hip hop track🔥
