"Thriller" by Rod Temperton / Michael Jackson
is now, quite predictably, "Killer"

Always played it safe, defending a center which just cannot hold
Enter the ring now, but something's wrong and his left hook is cold

The cell phone rings; a syntho voice says, "Heard the news? It's in you."
His vision's blurred -- he wants to stop the echo in his head: "Already dead."

(Chorus)
Cause it's some killer, killer tech
Those nanocreatures wreak an extreme vascular event
Yeah it's real killer, killer tech
He's fighting for his life --  is this to keep the X-Files in check?

The agents grill him, and he recalls a man who touched his wrist
They ID Orgell, a kidnapped governmental physicist
The senator tells Mulder SR819 means nothing...
In the garage the thug goes flying when hit by a car
No luck so far

Cause it's some killer, killer tech
It's forming carbon matrices in all of Skinner's veins
You know it's killer, killer tech
He's fighting for his life -- is this to keep the X-Files in check?

(bridge)
Man in a wig
Dials up carbon activity as he likes
There's no denyin' Krycek is the mastermind of all in bad disguise
Will he (gasp) take Skinner's life?

Our Dr. Scully walks in the hospital and she takes charge
"I'm in you hands" -- whoa! Confessing Skinner can apologize
And at the plant, a yelling match with Matheson and Mulder
Skinner flatlines; he's not meant to die so he recovers
Oh happy day

It's still some killer, killer tech
And Krycek now owns Skinner's life -- what does that ratboy want?
It's dormant killer, killer tech
The SR is withdrawn but there's a plotting, cold-eyed, human
Killer back in town.
