Thriller
Micheal Jackson Lyrics

It's close to midnight, and something evil's lurkin' in the dark
It is nearly midnight, and there is something wicked hiding in the darkness

Under the moonlight, you see a sight that almost stops your heart
In the moonlight, you witness something that nearly causes your heart to stop

You try to scream, but terror takes the sound before you make it
You attempt to scream, but before the sound comes out, fear silences you

You start to freeze, as horror looks you right between the eyes
You become frozen with fear as terror stares straight at you

You're paralyzed
You cannot move or act due to the overwhelming fear you feel

'Cause it's a thriller, thriller night
Because it is a terrifying, thrilling night

And no one's gonna save you from the beast about to strike
No one will come to your rescue when the monster is about to attack

You know it's thriller, thriller night
You are aware that it is an intense, thrilling night

You're fighting for your life inside a, killer, thriller tonight, yeah
You are battling for your life during a terrifying and deadly evening

You hear the door slam, and realize there's nowhere left to run
You hear a door shut and understand that there is no safe spot for you to escape to

You feel the cold hand, and wonder if you'll ever see the sun
You feel a cold hand and question if you will ever see daylight again

You close your eyes, and hope that this is just imagination
You close your eyes and wish that this is only a figment of your imagination

Girl, but all the while, you hear a creature creepin' up behind
However, during all of this, you can hear an animal sneaking up behind you

You're outta time
You are running out of time to save yourself from danger

There ain't no second chance against the thing with the forty eyes, girl
There is no opportunity to survive against the creature with forty eyes

Night creatures call and the dead start to walk in their masquerade
Night creatures are summoned, and the dead begin to rise

There's no escaping the jaws of the alien this time
You cannot flee from the extraterrestrial's grasp this time

(They're open wide)
Their mouths are gaping wide

This is the end of your life
This marks the conclusion of your existence

They're out to get you, there's demons closing in on every side (boom!)
They are hunting you, and monsters are surrounding you from all angles (suddenly!)

They will possess you, unless you change that number on your dial
They will take over your body if you do not change the telephone number you are calling

Now is the time, for you and I to cuddle close together, yeah
It is currently the moment for the two of us to hold each other tightly

All through the night, I'll save you from the terror on the screen
During the whole night, I will rescue you from the horror you see on the screen

I'll make you see
I will assist you in understanding

'Cause I can thrill you more than any ghoul would ever dare try
Because I can delight you more than any monster would ever be brave enough to attempt

So let me hold you tight and share a killer, diller, chiller thriller here tonight
Therefore, let me embrace you firmly and enjoy this chilling and thrilling evening together

I'm gonna thrill you tonight
I will excite and thrill you this evening

Darkness falls across the land
As night falls across the land

The midnight hour is close at hand
The hour of twelve at night is quickly approaching

Creatures crawl in search of blood
Monsters crawl around seeking blood

To terrorize your neighborhood
To cause terror to your community

And whosoever shall be found
And whoever is discovered

Without the soul for getting down
Lacking the motivation to dance

Must stand and face the hounds of hell
Must confront the hellish creatures

And rot inside a corpse's shell
And deteriorate within a dead body's container

The foulest stench is in the air
The most unpleasant odor is in the atmosphere

The funk of forty-thousand years
The odor that has existed for forty thousand years

And grizzly ghouls from every tomb
And gruesome ghosts from every grave

Are closing in to seal your doom
Are approaching to guarantee your fate

And though you fight to stay alive
Although you struggle to remain alive

Your body starts to shiver
Your body begins to tremble

For no mere mortal can resist
Because no ordinary human can combat

The evil of the thriller
The malevolence of the thrilling night
