Replay by Sean Kingston Thriller by Michael Jackson Fireflies by Owl City

Shawty's like a melody in my head It's close to midnight and something evil's You would not believe your eyes
That I can't keep out, got me lurking in the dark If ten million fireflies
singin' like Under the moonlight, you see a sight that Lit up the world as I fell asleep
Na, na, na, na everyday almost stops your heart
It's like my iPod's stuck on replay, You try to scream but terror takes the 'Cause they'd fill the open air
Replay sound before you make it And leave teardrops everywhere
You start to freeze as horror looks you You'd think me rude
Remember the first time we met right between the eyes But I would just stand and stare
You was at the mall with your You're paralyzed
friend I'd like to make myself believe
I was scared to approach you 'Cause this is thriller, thriller night That planet Earth turns slowly
But then you came closer And no one's gonna save you from the It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Hopin' you would give me a beast about strike Awake when I'm asleep
chance You know it's thriller, thriller night 'Cause everything is never as it seems
Who would have ever knew You're fighting for your life inside a killer,
That we would ever be more than thriller tonight 'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
friends From ten thousand lightning bugs
We're real worldwide, breakin' all You hear the door slam and realize As they tried to teach me how to dance
the rules there's nowhere left to run
She like a song played again and You feel the cold hand and wonder if A foxtrot above my head
again you'll ever see the sun A sock hop beneath my bed
That girl like somethin' off a You close your eyes and hope that this is A disco ball is just hanging by a thread
poster just imagination, girl!
That girl is a dime they say But all the while you hear the creature I'd like to make myself believe
That girl is a gun to my holster creeping up behind That planet Earth turns slowly
She's runnin' through my mind all You're out of time It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
day, hey Awake when I'm asleep
Night creatures calling, the dead start to 'Cause everything is never as it seems
See you been all around the globe walk in their masquerade When I fall asleep
Not once did you leave my mind There's no escaping the jaws of the alien
We talk on the phone this time Leave my door open just a crack
From night till the morn (They're open wide) (Please take me away from here)
Girl, you really change my life This is the end of your life 'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
Doin' things I never do (Please take me away from here)
I'm in the kitchen' cookin' things They're out to get you, there's demons Why do I tire of counting sheep
she likes closing in on every side (Please take me away from here)
We're real worldwide, breakin' all They will possess you unless you change When I'm far too tired to fall asleep
the rules that number on your dial
Someday I wanna make you my Now is the time for you and I to cuddle To ten million fireflies
Wife close together, yeah I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
All through the night I'll save you from the I got misty eyes as they said farewell
I can be your melody terror on the screen
Oh girl, I could write you a I'll make you see But I'll know where several are
symphony If my dreams get real bizarre
The one that could fill your (I'm gonna thrill ya tonight) 'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a
fantasies Darkness falls across the land Jar
So come, baby girl, let's sing with The midnight hour is close at hand
me, hey Creatures crawl in search of blood I'd like to make myself believe
To terrorize y'alls neighborhood That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
The foulest stench is in the air Awake when I'm asleep
The funk of forty thousand years Because my dreams are bursting at the
And grizzly ghouls from every tomb seams
Are closing in to seal your doom

And though you fight to stay alive
