Thriller
Âõ¿Ë¶û¡¤½Ü¿ËÑ· Michael Jackson Lyrics

It's close to midnight
The time is late at night, which is usually associated with scary things happening.

And something evil's lurking in the dark
There is a sense that something scary or dangerous is watching or following you.

Under the moonlight
The light source is from the moon which is often associated with supernatural events in movies.

You see a sight that almost stops your heart
The scene or event is so scary that it causes your heart to skip a beat.

You try to scream
You attempt to yell or make noise to get attention or scare away the danger.

But terror takes the sound before you make it
You are so scared that you are unable to make any noise.

You start to freeze
Your body is so cold and tense that you are unable to move or react.

As horror looks you right between the eyes
The fear is right in front of you and you are staring right at it.

You're paralyzed
You are unable to move or act out of fear.

'Cause this is thriller, thriller night
The situation you are in is so scary, it feels like it is a scene from a thriller movie and happening at night adds to the scariness.

And no one's gonna save you from the beast about to strike
There is no one there to help you and danger is imminent.

You know it's thriller, thriller night
The situation has a thrilling movie-like quality that makes it all the more scary.

You're fighting for your life inside a killer thriller tonight, yeah
The danger is life-threatening, and the situation feels like it is pulled straight out of a horror movie.

You hear the door slam
A door shuts loudly, which causes you to jump and feel like something is closing in on you.

And realize there's nowhere left to run
You are cornered and you can not escape.

You feel the cold hand
A cold hand touches you, causing you to feel very scared and uncomfortable.

And wonder if you'll ever see the sun
You start to think that you will never make it out alive and that you may be stuck in the scary situation forever.

You close your eyes
You shut your eyelids tight, attempting to not see what is happening and wishing it would all go away.

And hope that this is just imagination
You pray that what is happening to you isn't real and that it is just your mind playing tricks on you.

Girl, but all the while
This is the girl's perspective and the horror continues despite her attempting to deny it in her head.

You hear the creature creepin' up behind
The monster or danger is lurking closely behind you and is slowly approaching you.

You're out of time
The time to react has passed, and you are now in grave danger and unable to escape.

'Cause this is thriller, thriller night
The situation is so scary that it feels like it is happening in a thriller movie at night.

There ain't no second chance against the thing with forty eyes, girl
There is no opportunity or way to escape the danger no matter how petite thing is.

You're fighting for your life inside a killer thriller tonight
The situation makes you feel like you are the singer in a horror movie and your life is on the line.

Night creatures call
Fictional creatures that come out at night, like vampires or werewolves, are present in this scary situation.

And the dead start to walk in their masquerade
Zombies or ghosts are coming out to scare you while they are dressed up for an event, this is unsettling and something that wasn't expected.

There's no escapin' the jaws of the alien this time (They're open wide)
The threat is alien in nature (something unknown or not of this world) and is closing in on you quickly; attempting to run would be pointless.

This is the end of your life, oh
You feel like this is the end, and you will not make it out alive.

They're out to get you;
Something is after you, attempting to hurt or kill you.

There's demons closing in on every side
Demons or spirits are coming from all directions, which makes it even more difficult to escape and evade them.

They will possess you
If the danger catches you, it will completely take over you and control you in a way that is intended to be scary.

Unless you change that number on your dial
You need to think fast and find a way to escape or call for help if you want to avoid the danger completely.

Now is the time
This is the moment to get closer to someone and fight the fear or danger together.

For you and I to cuddle close together, yeah
You and someone else can find comfort in each other and fight the fear together; this can provide safety and solace in a scary situation.

All through the night
Through the entire scary situation or night, you and someone else will be sticking together until it is over.

I'll save you from the terrors on the screen
The scary movies or shows on the TV or any other media might have made the fear alive and more difficult to avoid, but the singer will help the girl to escape it.

I'll make you see
The singer will comfort and calm the girl down and help her discover that not everything is as scary as it seems.

That it's a thriller, thriller night
Even though the danger is scary, it is only like a scene from a thriller movie and it's not real; it is merely an illusion but a convincing one.

'Cause I can thrill you more than any ghost would ever dare try
The love story that is developing is more thrilling and exciting than any ghost story or movie since it involves real emotions and feelings.

The singer intends to excite and scare the girl for the fun of it, but also assure her that it is okay because they are safe.

Darkness falls across the land

The midnight hour is close at hand

Creatures crawl in search of blood
Monsters or other scary creatures are looking for prey to hurt or kill, which adds to the feeling of danger and fear.

To terrorize y'awl's neighborhood
These creatures or monsters are located in a neighborhood or place familiar to the singer or the girl, which makes it even more scary.

And whosoever shall be found
Anyone who is caught by these monsters or creatures is in grave danger and likely to be hurt or killed.

Without the soul for getting down
Anyone who is not prepared to fight or doesn't have the courage to face the danger will likely be consumed by it and unable to escape.

Must stand and face the hounds of hell
If you are caught and face the monsters and the danger, you will have to confront the worst of the worst and face the most horrible of consequences.

And rot inside a corpse's shell
If the monsters get you, the worst thing that can happen is that you will be turned into one of them, unable to escape the cycle of scary and dangerous events.

The foulest stench is in the air
There is a strong smell in the air, which is usually associated with death or things that are rotting, and adds to the horror and sense of danger that is already present.

The funk of forty thousand years
The smell is strong and pervasive, and you can almost sense the passage of time in how long it has been there.

And grizzly ghouls from every tomb
Monsters or ghosts that are even scarier and more dangerous than the previous ones mentioned are coming out from tombs. It adds to the already scary situation.

Are closing in to seal your doom
They are getting closer and not allowing any chance of escape; the situation is really hopeless and the danger is real.

And though you fight to stay alive
Even though the situation is dire, you still fight and try to survive.

Your body starts to shiver
You begin to get cold due to the fear and the sense of danger that you're feeling.

For no mere mortal can resist
This situation and challenge is so challenging and difficult that not everyone can withstand it or overcome it.

The evil of the thriller
