Don’t cry  
Don’t raise your eye  
It’s only teenage wasteland

If I should smile with sweet surprise  
It’s just that you’ve grown up before my very eyes  
You’ve turned into the prettiest girl I’ve ever seen  
Happy birthday sweet sixteen

You come on like a dream, peaches and cream,  
Lips like strawberry wine.  
You’re sixteen, you’re beautiful and you’re mine. (mine, all mine)

And just when I thought she was comin’ to my door  
She whispered sweet and brought me to the floor  
She said, I’m only seventeen (seventeen)  
But I’ll show you love like you’ve never seen  
She’s only seventeen  
Daddy says she’s too young  
But she’s old enough for me

[When in Rome…]

Isn’t this fun?  
Isn’t this what life’s all about?  
Isn’t this a dream come true?  
Isn’t this a nightmare too?

Oh, oh, oh I love little girls  
They make me feel so good  
I love, little girls  
They make me feel so, bad

</div>

And then you put your arms around me  
As we tumble to the ground and then you say

I think we’re alone now  
There doesn’t seem to be anyone around  
I think we’re alone now  
The beating of our hearts is the only sound

</div>

There’s a beast that lives inside you  
And it’s screaming, “Let me out!”  
It’s a storm that’s never ending  
It’s a truth without a doubt  
Now love can be a whisper  
But pain will always shout to you  
Like the beat of a heart

</div>

Hiding in daylight, biding it’s time  
The monster that wakes in your sleeping mind.

Inside of you  
You leave it unseen  
But it’s coming to life  
In your wildest dreams.

It’s the ground you stand on that’ s dissolving away  
And the urges you countered that take you out of your way

</div>

Once upon a time  
Once when you were mine  
I remember skies reflected in your eyes  
I wonder where you are  
I wonder if you think about me  
Once upon a time  
In your wildest dreams

Stars fading but I linger on, dear -  
Still craving your kiss.  
I’m longing to linger till dawn, dear,  
Just saying this…

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you -  
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you.  
But in your dreams, whatever they be,  
Dream a little dream of me.

Goodnight, my someone,  
Goodnight, my love,  
Sleep tight, my someone,  
Sleep tight, my love,  
Our star is shining it’s brightest light  
For goodnight, my love, for goodnight.

Sweet dreams be yours, dear,  
If dreams there be  
Sweet dreams to carry you close to me.  
I wish they may and I wish they might  
Now goodnight, my someone, goodnight

May it be an evening star  
Shines down upon you  
May it be when darkness falls  
Your heart will be true  
You walk a lonely road  
Oh! How far you are from home

Mornie utulie (Darkness has come)  
Believe and you will find your way  
Mornie alantie (Darkness has fallen)  
A promise lives within you now

</div>

Darkness falls across the land  
The midnight hour is close at hand  
Creatures crawl in search of blood  
To terrorize your 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 grisly 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

</div>

Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul

Don’t let me die here  
There must be something wrong, bring me to life

Wake me up, wake me up inside I can’t wake up,  
Wake me up inside, save me,  
Call my name and save me from the dark, wake me up  
Bid my blood to run, I can’t wake up  
Before I come undone, save me  
Save me from the nothing I’ve become

</div>

Time is important to your life and your death  
Controlling your mind it is only a test  
As it controls you, prepared to watch you  
Are you sure it’s a real life?

See their eyes filled with lies  
Watch the slaughter, endless night  
Make you scream, make you cry  
You know you’re helpless till the end of time  
Awakening of the Gods

</div>

It’s so dreamy, oh fantasy free me  
So you can’t see me, no not at all  
In another dimension, with voyeuristic intention  
Well-secluded, I see all  
With a bit of a mind flip  
You’re there in the time slip  
And nothing can ever be the same  
You’re spaced out on sensation, like you’re under sedation  
Let’s do the Time Warp again!

</div>

Ancient…mirror image cast  
Reminds you…the future’s like the past  
Time split into a close field  
Hauntin’ you…usin’ up your fear

SOMETHIN’ HATEFUL IN YOUR HEAD  
KICK IT OUT

</div>

It’s time for me to deal  
Becoming all too real  
Living in fear, why did you lie and pretend?  
This has come to an end  
I’ll never trust you again  
It’s time you made your amends  
Look in the mirror my friend

</div>

Yesterday, when I was young,  
So many happy songs were waiting to be sung,  
So many wayward pleasures lay in store for me  
And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see,

I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out,  
I never stopped to think what life was all about  
And every conversation I can now recall concerned itself with me, and nothing else at all.

We had such happiness together  
I can’t believe it’s gone forever

Wait 'til summer comes again  
I hope that you’ll remember when  
Our love had just begun  
I loved you yesterday and yesterday’s gone
