CHRIS CORNELL

- Billie Jean Lyrics

She was more like a beauty queen from a movie screen
Said, "Don't mind, but what do you mean
I am the one who would dance on the floor in the round?”
She says I am the one who would dance on the floor in the round

She said her name was Billie Jean, then she caused a scene
Every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one
Who would dance on the floor in the round

People always told me, “Be careful what you do
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts”
Mother always told me, “Be careful who you love
Careful what you do before the lie becomes the truth”

Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who says 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
Who could stand when she's in demand, her schemes and her plans
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round
So take my strong advice and remember to always think twice
Do think twice

She told my baby that we danced till three and she looked at me
Showed a photo of my baby cry, his eyes were like mine
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round

People always told me, “Be careful what you do
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts”
Then she stood right by me, the smell of sweet perfume
This happened much too soon but she called me to her room

Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who says 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

Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who says 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

So take my strong advice and remember to always think twice
Do think twice

What is the meaning behind Billie Jean lyrics?


When we try to interpret the meaning, Chris Cornell's rendition of Billie Jean describes the plight of a man who is blamed by a woman named Billie Jean for having a baby with her. The music touches on the ideas of lies, taking care in love affairs, and the fallout of gossip and miscommunication. The lyrics of Billie Jean mainly, though not the only way, focus on heartache, love, contemplation, social criticism, and youth's troubled feelings. The same goes for the song, which, while talking about deceit and false identity, also advises caution and discusses consequences. It is through the lyrics that the ideas of love and romance come along with the warnings of love and heartbreak that might be a bit too much for the very young ones. But there is nothing in the song that would offend on the grounds of explicit language, violence, or drug use, so it is generally suitable for the audience with parental guidance.
