Thriller
麦可杰克森MICHAEL JACKSON Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
'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 through 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 ever dare 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 ever dare try
Girl, this is thriller, thriller night
So let me hold you tight and share a killer, diller
Darkness falls across the land
The midnight 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
The lyrics to the song "Thriller" by Michael Jackson describe a horror film-like scenario, with the singer describing the terror that he feels when he is being pursued by evil creatures. The song begins with the singer describing a feeling of dread as he senses something evil lurking in the darkness. He tries to scream, but terror takes his voice away, and he becomes paralyzed with fear. The chorus of the song describes the situation as a thriller, a night filled with terror where no one is safe, and everyone is fighting for their lives. The second verse describes the singer's hopelessness as he realizes that there is nowhere left to run, and he will soon be caught by the monsters. The bridge of the song describes the creatures as unstoppable, possessing anyone who tries to resist them. The song's final section describes the singer's acceptance of his fate, as he realizes that he cannot escape the creatures and is doomed to become one of them.

Darkness falls across the land
The midnight 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 darkness covers the entire area, and it's almost midnight. Creatures are creeping around in search of victims to scare. Whoever is unlucky enough to be discovered without the essential bravado will need to face terrible consequences and perish a frightening death.
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
An acrid smell fills the atmosphere, a smell that resembles the stench of death from four centuries ago. Ghosts from their tombs are closing in to cause your demise. Although you try to stay alive, chills run down your spine because no human can withstand the horrors of this night.
