Lyrics:

I went down to the disco
To have a dance
Hoping to find a new romance

A foxy lady in
A bright red cape
Caught my eye and really
Drove me ape

All of a sudden
I was acting deranged
My hair was growing wild
I was looking strange

She said I's the one
Who would name me thriller
Cause she was searching
For the this-gorilla

(Disco, this-gorilla)
(Disco, this-gorilla)
(this-gorilla, lady killer)
(this-gorilla, knows how
To thrill her)

(Disco, this-gorilla)
(Disco, this-gorilla)

The music stopped
And we got off the floor
The crowd went bananas
And begged for more

Now I'm the king
Of the disco villa
Affectionately known as
The this-gorilla

(Disco, this-gorilla)
(Disco, this-gorilla)
(this-gorilla, lady killer)
(this-gorilla, knows how
To thrill her)

(Disco, this-gorilla)
(Disco, this-gorilla)
(Disco, this-gorilla)
(Disco, this-gorilla)

Every night as
I lay on my pillow
I dream of the time
I saw this-gorilla

(Disco, this-gorilla)
(Disco, this-gorilla)
(Disco, this-gorilla)
(Disco, this-gorilla)

Let's monkey around

(Disco, this-gorilla)
(Disco, this-gorilla)...
