1st Verse
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
You Start To Freeze As Horror Looks
You Right Between The Eyes,
You're Paralyzed
Chorus
'Cause This Is Thriller, Thriller
Night
And No One's Gonna Save You From The
Beast About
Strike

You're Fighting For Your Life Inside
A Killer, Thriller
Tonight
2nd Verse
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
You Close Your Eyes And Hope That
This Is Just
Imagination
But All The While You Hear The Creature
Creepin' Up
Behind
You're Out Of Time
Chorus

The Terror On The Screen,
I'll Make You See

'Cause I Can Thrill You More Than
Any Ghost Would Dare To Try
Girl, This Is Thriller, Thriller Night
So Let Me Hold You Tight And Share
A Killer, Diller, Chiller
Thriller Here Tonight
(Rap Performed By Vincent Price)
Darkness Falls Across The Land
The Midnite Hour Is Close At Hand
Creatures Crawl In Search Of Blood
To Terrorize Y'awl's 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 Forty Thousand Years
And Grizzy 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
BEAT IT
Written and Composed by Michael Jackson,
1982.

To Always Think Twice
(Do Think Twice)

She Told My Baby That's A Threat
As She Looked At Me
Then Showed A Photo Of A Baby Cries
Eyes Would Like Mine

What You Do
And Don't Go Around Breaking Young
Girls' Hearts
She Came And Stood Right By Me
Then The Smell Of Sweet Perfume
This Happened Much Too Soon
She Called Me To Her Room

She's Just A Girl Who Claims That
I Am The One
