Ofcourse it sounds like the original but its a parody, and i think its different enough (several different notes and instruments etc). I created it so how can they say it's theirs? I already disputed it by the way.
Copyright the song in your country, if you can. Sign up with a NL publishing company.
If bieber boobs makes a claim sort it out and explain it is meant as a parody. If your lead melody is the same as his you will have to go weird al route and pay them royalties if your song makes anything. More than likely they will just not allow the song if its too much of a copy and...they won't help you to make fun of their artist.

Option 2: Get a lawyer. Most countries have free lawyer advice services for artists.
