Michael Jackson “Thriller”

Cut out the paragraphs and put them in the correct order.

'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 tonight

...................................................................................................................................................................

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

'Cause this is thriller, thriller night

There ain't no second chance against the thing with forty eyes, girl

Thriller, thriller night

You're fighting for your life inside a killer, thriller tonight

...................................................................................................................................................................

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

...................................................................................................................................................................

That this is thriller, thriller night

'Cause 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, diller, chiller, thriller here tonight

...................................................................................................................................................................

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

...................................................................................................................................................................

'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!

I’m waking up to ash and dust


I wipe my brow and I sweat my rust


I’m 1 in the chemicals

I’m breaking in and shaping up


Then 2 out on the prison bus


This is it the apocalypse

I’m 3 up
I feel it in my bones


Enough to make my system blow

Welcome to the new age,

I raise my 4 and don my clothes


It’s a revolution I suppose


We’re 5 red to fit 6 in

Then checking out on the prison bus


This is it the apocalypse

ohohoh
