Lyrics
Thriller
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's close to midnight
Something evil's lurkin' 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, yeah
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 a creature creepin' up behind
You're outta time
'cause this is thriller
Thriller night
There ain't no second chance
Against the thing with the forty eyes, girl
(thriller)
(thriller night)
You're fighting for your life
Inside a killer
Thriller tonight
Night creatures call
And the dead start to walk in their masquerade
There's no escaping the jaws of the alien this time
(they're open wide)
This is the end of your life
They're out to get you
There's demons closing in on every side
They will possess you
Unless you change that number on your dial
Now is the time
For you and i to cuddle close together, yeah
All through the night
I'll save you from the terror on the screen
I'll make you see
That this is thriller
Thriller night
'cause i can thrill you more
Than any ghost would ever dare try
(thriller)
(thriller night)
So let me hold you tight
And share a
(killer, diller, chiller)
(thriller here tonight)
'cause this is thriller
Thriller night
Girl, i can thrill you more
Than any ghost would ever dare try
(thriller)
(thriller night)
So let me hold you tight
And share a
(killer, thriller)
I'm gonna thrill you tonight
I'm gonna thrill you tonight
(thriller, 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
