[Intro]

"And though you fight to stay alive

Your body starts to shiver

For no mere mortal can resist

The evil of the thriller"

[Verse 1]

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 (ow, ah)

You start to freeze

As horror looks you right between the eyes; you're paralyzed

[Chorus]

'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

[Post-Chorus]

(Tonight)

(Ah)

(Ah)

[Verse 2]

You hear the door slam

And realize there's nowhere left to run (ow!)

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 (oh girl)

But all the while

You hear a creature creepin' up behind; you're out of time

[Chorus]

'Cause this is thriller, thriller night

There ain't no second chance against the thing with forty eyes

You know it's thriller, thriller night

You're fighting for your life inside a killer thriller

This is thriller, thriller night

And 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

Toni-i-i-i---i--i---i-i-...

Tonight

[Outro]

"Darkness falls across the land

The midnight hour is close at hand

Creatures crawl in search of blood

To terrorize your neighborhood

And whosoever shall be found

Without the soul for getting down

Must stand and face the hounds of Hell

And rot inside a corpse's shell"

'Cause this is thriller

(Oh girl, tonight)

"The foulest stench is 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"

Tonight
