  • We made love in a mad embrace
    Now you say you don't know my face
    Superstar
    You know just who you are

    You tell the world, you don't even know me
    A contradiction to the love you show
    Superstar
    You know just who you are

    (Chorus):
    I'm billie jean and I'm mad as hell
    I'm a woman with a story to tell
    Superstar
    You know just who you are
    (Who you are, who you are, who you are)

    You can't love a woman and push her aside
    'Cause she got feelings, just like you do
    A woman's got her pride
    I don't want nothing from you
    It's not what I'm about
    But you've been lying, there's no denying
    Hey, hey, hey, hey

    [Chorus]

    Late one night, you rang my phone
    You called to make sure that I was all alone
    You said you were feeling down
    And couldn't be seen around
    One thing led to another
    You became my lover, you said
    "Let's keep it secret, let's not spread it around"
    You send me flowers and diamonds
    And said that you were in love
    You said you never met a girl
    That you thought so much of

    Superstar
    You know just who you are
    (Who you are, who you are, who you are)

    And then all of a sudden
    You just stopped coming by
    You never called on the phone
    And I didn't know why
    Too many fellas nowadays
    Push their girl aside
    First they get what they want
    Then they run off and hide
    But baby, time went by
    I was not upset
    And then much to my surprise
    One day to my regret
    Well the doctor said that
    There will soon be two
    And there's a little one coming
    There's a man in you

    I was in shock
    I thought I'd faint
    And I was petrified
    First I laughed 'cause I was happy
    Then I started to cry
    And when the baby was born
    I sent you a telegram
    But it came back saying
    You don't know who I am

    Superstar
    You know just who you are
    (Who you are, who you are, who you are)

    I saw you in a club one night
    And I did not intend to start a fight
    But when you said who am I
    You don't know my face
    I went off, I made a scene
    I really wrecked the place
    And I know you might be a big superstar
    And the whole wide world knows who you are
    But the next time we meet
    If you don't want a scene
    Tip your hat with respect
    'Cause I am billie jean

    Superstar
    You know just who you are
    (Who you are, who you are, who you are)

    [Chorus]

    I'm billie jean, I'm mad as hell
