It's close to midnight Something evil's lurkin'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
'Cause this is thriller
Thriller at night
And no one's gonna save you
From the beast about to strike
You know it's thriller
Thriller at night
You're fighting for your life
Inside a killer
Thriller tonight, yeah
It's pronounced "Frahn-Ken-Schteen", not "Frankenstein"
