Thrill Her

Lions and tigers and bears,
Like 
Zombies and demons, nightmares.
Scare you to death eh, Wendy.

They scare you and
Haunt you and 
Chase you and


Eat you.
Tear you limb from limb,
Suck the blood from your heart 

Chew happily on your bones...

They follow you to 
Your dreams...

Scary. Scary. Scary.

But listen,
Listen carefully to,
Thriller,

Hear Michael sing it,

See Michael sing it...

It's scary 

But not in the way you think,
At first listen.

Monsters, 
He says,
Sings,

Might be scary but 
You ain't seen nothing yet.

You ain't seen what 

My love 
For you
Can do 

My love is scarier

I can thrill you more 
Than any ghoul can ever dare try...

Just you wait and see.
