Songtexte Thriller - Michael Jackson

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
And 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, yeah
Ooh

You hear the door slam and realize there's nowhere left to run
And you feel the cold hand and wonder if you'll ever see the sun
And you close your eyes and hope that this is just imagination (girl)
But all the while, you hear a creature creepin' up behind
You're out of time

'Cause this is thriller, thriller night
There ain't no second chance against the thing with 40 eyes, girl
Thriller (ooh), 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
(They're open wide) this is the end of your life
Ooh

They're out to get you, there's demons closing in on every side (ooh)
They will possess you unless you change that number on your dial
Now is the time for you and I to cuddle close together, yeah
All through the night, I'll save you from the terror on the screen
I'll make you see

That this is thriller, thriller night
'Cause I can thrill you more than any ghoul would ever dare try
Thriller (ooh), thriller night
So let me hold you tight and share a killer, diller, chiller, thriller
Here tonight

'Cause this is thriller, thriller night
Girl, I can thrill you more than any ghoul would ever dare try
Thriller (ooh), thriller night
So let me hold you tight and share a killer, thriller (ow!)

I'm gonna thrill you tonight
Darkness falls across the land
The midnight hour is close at hand
Creatures crawl in search of blood
To terrorize y'all's neighborhood

I'm gonna thrill you tonight
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

I'm gonna thrill you tonight (thriller)
Ooh, baby (thriller), I'm gonna thrill you tonight (thriller night, killer)
Oh, darling (oh, baby), I'm gonna thrill you tonight (thriller)
Ooh-ooh, baby (thriller night), I'm gonna thrill you tonight (thriller)
Oh, darling (oh, baby), thriller night, baby (thriller night, baby)
Ooh

The foulest stench is in the air
The funk of forty thousand years (thriller, thriller night)
And grisly ghouls from every tomb (I'm gonna thrill you tonight, thriller)
Are closing in to seal your doom (ooh, baby, oh yeah)

And though you fight to stay alive (ooh, I'm gonna thrill you tonight)
Your body starts to shiver (I'm gonna thrill you tonight)
For no mere mortal can resist (thriller, thriller tonight)
The evil of the thriller
