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
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
Oh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah
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, yeah
Girl, but all the while
You hear the creature creepin' up behind
You're out of time
This is thriller, thriller night
There ain't no second chance against the thing with forty eyes, girl
Thriller (woo-hoo), 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, oh
They're out to get you
There's demons closing in on every side, yeah
They will possess you
Unless you change that number on your dial
Now is the time
For you and I to cuddle close together, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
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
Thriller (woo-hoo) thriller night
So let me hold you tight and share a killer, thriller
Chiller, thriller here tonight
'Cause it's a thriller, thriller night
'Cause I can thrill you more than any ghost would ever dare try
Thriller (woo-hoo) thriller night
So let me hold you tight and share a killer, thriller, oh
