It's close to midnight and something evil's lurking in the dark
Under the moonlight you see a dight 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 the strike
You know it's thriller, thriller night
You're fighting for your life inside a killer, thriller tonight, yeah
Oooo

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...
