|
It's close to midnight and something evil's a-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 |
|
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 |
|
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 |
|
You know it's 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 escapin' 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 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 |
|
(Rap performed by Vincent Price) |
|
Darkness falls across the land |
|
The midnite hour is close at hand |
|
Creatures crawl in search of blood |
|
To terrorize y'awl's 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 |
|
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 |
