Now, for THIS SONG:
Billie Jean, by Michael Jackson, 1983; performed/taught here by Marco D.

VERSE 1:
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

VERSE 2:
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

PRE-CHORUS A:
People always told me - be careful what you do
And don’t go around breakin young girl’s hearts
And mother always told me - be careful who you love
And be careful what you do
cuz the lie becomes the truth - hey hey

CHORUS A:
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 - hoo!
She says I am the one
but - the kid is not my son - hee hee hee - hee hee hee

VERSE 3:
For forty days and for forty nights I was on her side
But who can stand when she’s in demand
her schemes and plans
Cuz we danced - on the floor - in the round
So take my strong advice
just remember to always think twice
Don’t think twice, do think twice!

VERSE 4:
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
Cuz we danced - on the floor - in the round, baby

PRE-CHORUS B:
People always told me - be careful what you do
And don’t go around breakin young girl’s 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 - hey hey

CHORUS B:
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!

CHORUS C:
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
She says I am the one
but - the kid is not my son ─ ─ hee hee hee

[INTERLUDE]

CHORUS D:
She says I am the one
but - the kid is not my son - no, no, no - ooh!
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
She says I am the one
but - the kid is not my son - no, no, no, no, no

OUTRO:
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 [6 times, growing more quiet]
