Versuri:

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 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 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)

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
Then 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, but the kid is not 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 este o melodie compusă de Michael Jackson şi produsă împreună cu Quincy Jones pentru albumul Thriller apărut în 1982. Iniţial, Lui Quincy Jones i-a displăcut piesa, astfel că aceasta era aproape să nu mai fie inclusă pe album din cauza unor neînţelegeri cu artistul.

Există păreri contradictorii în ce priveştea povestea care se ascunde în spatele versurilor. Unii cred că ele derivă dintr-o experienţă de viaţă, în care o femeie bolnavă psihic ar fi afirmat că Michael Jackson este tatăl unuia din gemenii ei. Alţii, bazându-se pe faptul că Michael era un fan al jocului de tenis, cred că versurile se referă la celebra jucătoare de tenis Billie Jean King, deşi acest lucru este puţin plauzibil având în vedere preferinţele sexuale ale jucătoarei.

Iată care sunt afirmaţiile artistului în legătură cu această piesă:

„Billie Jean is kind of anonymous. It represents a lot of girls. They used to call them groupies in the ’60s. They would hang around backstage doors, and any band that would come to town they would have a relationship with, and I think I wrote this out of experience with my brothers when I was little. There were a lot of Billie Jeans out there. Every girl claimed that their son was related to one of my brothers.”

Billie Jean a primit Discul de Platină în 1989, două premii Grammy şi şi se află pe locul 58 în topul 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
