Antarctica winter 1982 Research was going steady And there was nothing much to do In the distance a lone wolf flees But no one knows The carnage that this animal will bring VIOLENCE UNFOLDS Assaulted by Norwegian guests They'll have to die like all the rest SEARCHING THROUGH SNOW Discovering the frozen corpse Of something that's not of this earth THE CREATURE COMES FORTH An evil makes its presence known Attempting to create a clone NOWHERE TO GO And something grim is at hand Something in this artic land The Thing No one knows the hell it will bring It's got you from the inside It's taking over your life Intentions so unexplained Until it gets a hold of your brain Hiding till the damage is done Killing them off one by one The sense of fear begins to grow No one has protection From this dangerous infection Their fates in the hands of the unknown And nerves are quickly blowing While the thing is steadily growing Whom to trust they'll never know And nothing can contain A creature unexplained Half the crews dead more to go Somehow it's got to stop And now McReadys getting pissed off Now there's nothing left to do Discovering who's human Is what this final test will prove Deadly results are what this test brings But it's the final hope To unveil his gruesome being VIOLENCE UNFOLDS The test was the solution Now its time for execution SEARCHING THROUGH THE SNOW And now Blair is the last Thing left He'll fight until his dying breath THE CREATURE COMES FORTH But this will be the final clash And kills it with a giant blast NOWHERE TO GO Our hero's fate is finally sealed The camp is lost The Thing is killed (or is it?)
