It's close to midnight 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 This is thriller, thriller night And no-ones going to save you from the beast about to strike 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 escaping the jaws of the alien this time 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 that number on your dial Now is it 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 It's thriller, thriller night 'Cause I can throw more than any ghoul would rather dare try It's thriller, thriller night So let me hold you tight and share a killer chiller tonight Darkness falls across the land The midnight hour is close at hand Creatures crawl in search of blood To terrorise your neighbourhood 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 fourty 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
