Dangerous
Michael Jackson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The way she came into the place
I knew right then and there
There was something different
About this girl

The way she moved
Her hair, her face, her lines
Divinity in motion

As she stalked the room
I could feel the aura
Of her presence
Every head turned
Feeling passion and lust

The girl was persuasive
The girl I could not trust
The girl was bad
The girl was dangerous

I never knew but I was
Walking the line
Come go with me
I said I have no time
And don't you pretend we didn't
Talk on the phone
My baby cried
She left me standing alone

She's so dangerous
The girl is so dangerous
Take away my money
Throw away my time
You can call me honey
But you're no damn good for me

She came at me in sections
With the eyes of desire
I fell trapped into her
Web of sin
A touch, a kiss
A whisper of love
I was at the point
Of no return

Deep in the darkness of
Passion's insanity
I felt taken by lust's
Strange inhumanity
This girl was persuasive
This girl I could not trust
The girl was bad
The girl was dangerous

I never knew
But I was living in vain
She called my house
She said you know my name
And don't you pretend
You never did me before
With tears in her eyes
My baby walked out the door

She's so dangerous
The girl is so dangerous
Take away my money
Throw away my time
You can call me honey
But you're no damn good for me

Dangerous
The girl is so dangerous
I have to pray to god
'Cause I know how
Lust can blind
It's a passion in my soul
But you're no damn lover
Friend of mine

I can not sleep alone tonight
My baby left me here tonight
I cannot cope 'til it's all right
You and your manipulation
You hurt my baby

And then it happened
She touched me
For the lips of
A strange woman
Drop as a honeycomb
And her mouth was
Smoother than oil
But her inner spirit and words
Were as sharp as
A two-edged sword
But I loved it
'Cause it's dangerous

Dangerous
The girl is so dangerous
Take away my money
Throw away my time
You can call me honey
But you're no damn good for me

Dangerous
The girl is so dangerous
Take away my money
Throw away my time
You can call me honey
But you're no damn good for me

Dangerous
The girl is so dangerous
Take away my money
Throw away my time
You can call me honey
But you're no damn good for me

Dangerous
The girl is so dangerous
I have to pray to god
'cause I know how
Lust can blind
It's a passion in my soul




But you're no damn lover
Friend of mine

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Michael Jackson’s “Dangerous” describe a captivating woman who is both alluring and treacherous. The singer is immediately drawn to her and can feel her presence in the room, as every head turns to look at her. He knows that there is something different about her, and it is clear that she has a powerful effect on others. Despite this, he knows that he can’t trust her, and that she is dangerous.


As the song progresses, the woman becomes increasingly influential and manipulative. The singer falls under her spell, and is unable to resist her advances. He becomes ensnared in her “web of sin” and is lured deeper and deeper into her world. Despite knowing that he is being used and manipulated, he is unable to break away from her.


The lyrics to “Dangerous” are a warning about the dangers of temptation and the allure of forbidden pleasures. The song reminds us that even the most captivating and attractive things can be harmful and destructive in the end.

You and your manipulation
You and your attempts to control and deceive


You hurt my baby
You caused emotional pain to my loved one


And then it happened
And then something occurred


She touched me
She made physical contact with me


For the lips of
Likening her to


A strange woman
A woman with unknown intentions


Drop as a honeycomb
Her words were sweet like honey


And her mouth was
Her way of speaking


Smoother than oil
Effortlessly persuasive


But her inner spirit and words
But her true intentions and what she said


Were as sharp as
Were piercing and painful, like


A two-edged sword
A weapon that can cut both ways, causing harm


But I loved it
But I was attracted to it

Throw away my time
You can call me honey
But you're no damn good for me.
