It's close to midnight and 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 the eyes, You're paralyzed
'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
You hear the door slam and realize there's nowhere left to run
You feel the cold hand and wonder if you'll ever see the sun
You close your eyes and hope that this is just imagination
Girl, But all the while you hear the creature creepin' up behind You're out of time
'Cause this is thriller, thriller night There ain't no second chance against the thing with forty eyes Girl
You know it's thriller, thriller night You're fighting to survive inside a killer, thriller tonight
Night creatures call And the dead start to walk in their masquerade
There's no escapin' the jaws of the alien this time (They're open wide) This is the end of yout life
They're out to get you, there's demons closing in on every side
They will possess you unless you change the number on your dial
Now is the time for you and I to cuddle close together
All thru the night I'll save you from the terrors on the screen, I'll make you see
That it's a thriller, thriller night 'Cause I can thrill you more than any ghost would dare to try
Girl, this is thriller, thriller night
So let me hold you tight and share a killer, diller, chiller, Thriller here tonight That it's a thriller, thriller night
'Cause I can thrill you more than any ghost would dare to try
Girl, this is thriller, thriller night
So let me hold you tight and share a killer, diller,
I'm gonna be tonight
The foulest stench's in the air The funk of forty thousand years And grizzly ghouls from every tomb Are closing in to seal your doom And though you fight to stay alive Your body starts to shiver for no mere mortal can resist the evil of the thriller
