Killer, diller, chiller, thriller here tonight
To terrorize y'alls neighborhood
And grizzly ghouls from every tomb

You try to scream but terror takes the sound before you make it
You're paralyzed
'Cause this is thriller, thriller night
Thriller, thriller night
You know it's thriller, thriller night
The foulest stench is in the air
You're out of time

Night creatures calling, the dead start to walk in their masquerade
Creatures crawl in search of blood
The funk of forty thousand years
(They're open wide)

They're out to get you, there's demons closing in on every side
All through the night I'll save you from the terror on the screen

I'm gonna thrill ya tonight, oh darlin'
And no one's gonna save you from the beast about strike
I'm gonna thrill ya tonight, ooh baby
You're fighting for your life inside a killer, thriller tonight
You feel the cold hand and wonder if you'll ever see the sun
I'll make you see
(I'm gonna thrill ya tonight)

'Cause this is thriller, thriller night
'Cause I can thrill you more than any ghost would ever dare try
Are closing in to seal your doom
That this is thriller, thriller night
So let me hold you tight and share a
You close your eyes and hope that this is just imagination, girl!
Your body starts to shiver
There's no escaping the jaws of the alien this time

But all the while you hear the creature creeping up behind
So let me hold you tight and share a killer, thriller, ow!
The midnight hour is close at hand
You're fighting for your life inside a killer, thriller tonight
'Cause this is thriller, thriller night
They will possess you unless you change that number on your dial
Darkness falls across the land
You hear the door slam and realize there's nowhere left to run
You start to freeze as horror looks you right between the eyes

There ain't no second chance against the thing with forty eyes, girl
Thriller night, baby, ooh!
This is the end of your life
The evil of the thriller

Girl, I can thrill you more than any ghost would ever dare try
For no mere mortal can resist
And though you fight to stay alive
Thriller, thriller night
Thriller, thriller night

Now is the time for you and I to cuddle close together, yeah
