{Michael's girlfriend starts waving her head}
- MICHAEL JACKSON: {Walking and dancing around his girlfriend} 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!
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, girl!
But all the while you hear the creature creeping up behind
You're out of time!
They're out to get you, there's demons closing in on every side
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!
{Michael and his girlfriend walk by a graveyard and as they walk out of screen. The camera zooms in on a grave as a zombies starts to come out of the ground.}
- VINCENT PRICE: Darkness falls across the land, and midnight hour is close at hand. Creatures crawl in search of blood, to terrorize your neighborhood. And who shall ever be found, without the soul forgetting ground. The sound that scrapes the grounds of hell, and rot inside a corpse shell.
{Many zombies are seen coming out of their graves walking out of the graveyard. Soon all the zombies are seen walking on the street and eventually surround Michael and his girlfriend.}
- VINCENT PRICE: The foulest stenches in the air, the funk of forty-thousand years, and grizzly goons 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!
{Michael and his girlfriend start looking around themselves as zombies come closer. Both terrified Michael and his girl get closer aside each other, and eventually Michael's girlfriend turns around to find that Michael has become one as well. Michael starts dancing along with all the other zombies to the Thriller music}
- MICHAEL JACKSON: 'Cause this is thriller, thriller night
And no one's gonna save you from the beast about strike
You know it's thriller, thriller night
You're fighting for your life inside a killer, thriller
'Cause this is thriller, thriller night
Girl, I can thrill you more than any ghost would ever dare try
Thriller, thriller night
So let me hold you tight and share a killer, thriller, ow!
Ow! killer, thriller tonight
'Cause this is thriller, thriller night
Girl, I can thrill you more than any ghost would ever dare try
Thriller, thriller night
So let me hold you tight and share a killer, thriller, ow!
