[Bad Intro]
Who's bad?
[Verse]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
People always told me, "Be careful of what you do
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts" (Hee-eeh)
And mother always told me, "Be careful of who you love
And be careful of what you do (Oh-oh)
'Cause the lie becomes the truth" (Oh-oh)
[Chorus]
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one (Oh, baby)
But the kid is not my son, hoo!
She says I am the one (Oh, baby)
But the kid is not my son (Hee-hee-hee, no-no-no, hee-hee-hee)
Hoo!
Rock with You
[Bad Verse]
Your butt is mine, gonna tell you right, ah
Just show your face in broad daylight, ah
I'm tellin' you on how I feel, ah
Gonna hurt your mind, don't shoot to kill
Shamone
[Chorus]
I wanna rock with you (All night)
Dance you into day (Sunlight)
I wanna rock with you (All night)
We're gonna rock the night away (Rock, right)
Bad
[Verse]
Your butt is mine, gonna tell you right, ah
Just show your face in broad daylight, ah
I'm tellin' you on how I feel, ah
Gonna hurt your mind, don't shoot to kill
Shamone, ah, shamone
Lay it on me, ah, all right
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, they say the sky's the limit
And to me, that's really true, ah
But my friend, you have say nothing
Just wait 'til I get through!
[Chorus]
Because I'm bad, I'm bad! Shamone! (Bad, bad, really, really bad)
You know I'm bad, I'm bad (Bad, bad)
You know it! (Really, really bad)
You know I'm bad, I'm bad! Shamone! (Bad, bad)
You know! (Really, really bad)
And the whole world has to answer right now
Just to tell you once again: Who's bad?
Thriller
[Verse: Michael Jackson]
It's close to midnight
Something evil's lurking in the dark
Under the moonlight
You see a sight that almost stops your heart
You try to scream
But terror takes the sound before you make it
You start to freeze
As horror looks you right between your eyes
You're paralyzed
[Chorus: Michael Jackson]
'Cause this is thriller
Thriller night
And no one's gonna save you
From the beast about to strike
You know it's thriller
Thriller night
You're fighting for your life
Inside a killer
Thriller tonight, yeah, ooh
[Outro: Vincent Price & Michael Jackson]
I'm gonna thrill you tonight
(Thriller, ooh, thriller)
I'm gonna thrill you tonight
(Thriller night, thriller)
I'm gonna thrill you tonight
Ooh, babe, I'm gonna thrill you tonight
Thriller night, babe
The foulest stench is in the air
The funk of 40 thousand years (Thriller night, thriller)
And grisly ghouls from every tomb
Are closing in to seal your doom
And though you fight to stay alive
Your body starts to shiver (I'm gonna thrill you tonight)
For no mere mortal can resist
The evil of the thriller!
Don’t Stop ’Til You Get Enough
[Intro]
Oooh!
[Verse]
Lovely is the feeling now
Fever, temperatures rising now
Power is the force, the vow (Oh power)
That makes it happen, it asks no questions why (Ooh)
[Chorus]
Keep on with the force don't stop
Don't stop 'til you get enough
Keep on with the force don't stop (Don't stop, darling)
Don't stop 'til you get enough
Keep on with the force don't stop (Don't, baby)
Don't stop 'til you get enough
Keep on with the force don't stop (Keep on)
Don't stop 'til you get enough
Keep on with the force don't stop (Keep on, darling)
Don't stop 'til you get enough
Keep on with the force don't stop (Keep on, baby)
Don't stop 'til you get enough
Keep on with the force don't stop (Don't stop 'til you get enough)
Don't stop 'til you get enough
Keep on with the force don't stop (Keep on, darling)
Don't stop 'til you get enough
Keep on with the force don't stop (Alright, yeah)
Don't stop 'til you get enough
Keep on with the force don't stop (Keep on, baby)
Don't stop 'til you get enough
Black or White/Remember the Time
[Verse 1]
I took my baby on a Saturday
Boy is that girl with you? Yes, we're one and the same
No, I believe in miracles, and a miracle has happened tonight (night, night)
But if you're thinking about my baby, it don't matter if you're black or white
[L.T.B/Verse 2/Rap]
Protection (Grrrrrat, tat tat, tat)
For gangs, clubs, and nations
Causing grief in human relations (Grrrrrat, tat tat) (rat, tat tat)
It's a turf war (turf war) (Grrrrrat, tat tat, tat)
On a global scale
I'd rather hear of both sides this tale (Grrrrrat, tat tat) (Hoo!)
You see it's not about races (races) (Grrrrrat, tat tat, tat)
Just places, spaces (spaces) (Grrrrrat, tat tat) (rat, tat tat)
It's where your blood comes from
It's where your face is (Grrrrrat, tat tat, tat)
I've seen the blood get duller
I'm not gonna spend my life bein' a color (Grrrrrat, tat tat) (Hoo!)
[Outro]
(What about, what about)
(What about, what about)
(What about, what about)
(What about, what about)
(What about, what about)
(What about, what about)
(What about, what about)
(What about, what about) (who's bad?)
Scream
[Verse: Michael and Janet]
I'm tired of injustice, I'm tired of the schemes
The lies are disgusting, so what does it mean, damn it?
You're kicking me down, I got to get up
As jacked as it sounds, the whole system sucks, damn it!
Hoo!
Peek in the shadow, come into the light
You tell me I'm wrong, then you better prove you're right!
You're selling out souls but I care about mine
I've got to get stronger, and I won't give up the fight!
[Pre-Chorus: Michael and Janet]
With such confusion don't it make you want to scream? (Make you want to scream?)
Your bash abusing victimize within the scheme!
You try to cope with every lie they scrutinize!
[Chorus: Both]
Somebody please have mercy, cause I just can't take it!
Stop pressuring me, just stop pressuring me
Stop pressuring me, make me want to scream!
Stop pressuring me, just stop pressuring me
Stop pressuring me, make you just want to scream!
Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'
[Chorus]
I said you want to be starting something
You got to be starting something
I said you want to be starting something
You got to be starting something
It's too high to get over (yeah, yeah)
You're too low to get under (yeah, yeah)
You're stuck in the middle (yeah, yeah)
And the pain is thunder (yeah, yeah)
It's too high to get over (yeah, yeah)
You're too low to get under (yeah, yeah)
You're stuck in the middle (yeah, yeah)
And the pain is thunder (yeah, yeah)
[Verse]
I took my baby to the doctor with a fever
But nothing he found
By the time this hit the street
They said she had a breakdown
Someone's always trying
To start my baby crying
Talking, squealing, lying
Saying you just want to be starting something
[Chorus]
I said you want to be starting something
You got to be starting something
I said you want to be starting something
You got to be starting something
It's too high to get over (yeah, yeah)
You're too low to get under (yeah, yeah)
You're stuck in the middle (yeah, yeah)
And the pain is thunder (yeah, yeah)
It's too high to get over (yeah, yeah)
You're too low to get under (yeah, yeah)
You're stuck in the middle (yeah, yeah)
And the pain is thunder (yeah, yeah)
[Bridge]
Lift your head up high and scream out to the world
"I know I am someone," and let the truth unfurl
No one can hurt you now because you know what's true
Yes, I believe in me, so do believe in you
[Outro]
