Fall Out Boy - Thriller Lyrics Meaning

This is just my interpretation, if you have anything you think should be different, let me know.

From the very beginng we know this song is aimed towards the devoted fans that never tunred their backs on Fall Out Boy, becuase of the words Jay-Z is saying at the beginning of the song.

"Last summer we took threes across the board"
Last year Fall Out Boy had three major hits on the bill board charts, those being A Little Less Sixteen Candles, Sugar We're Going Down, and Dance Dance, though all of the songs on FUCT were amazing. The board, is referring to the bill board charts."But by fall, we were a cover story now in stores" That fall, they made a name for themselves like never before, and everyone knew the name of their album."Make us poster boys for your scene, but we are not making an acceptance speech."Fall Out Boy has basically been the poster band for Emo/Punk Rock music, and they are saying that yes, you can make them the poster band, but that there not doing this for the fame. They are doing this for the music.

The chorus goes "So long live the car crash hearts, cry on the couch all the poets come alive, fix me in 45" This is basically saying "long live the broken hearts, who cry all night and put in this cd, to fix you." "Fix me in 45" does not just seem to be a random number. All three of the major Fall Out Boy albums have been approximately 45 minutes long."I can take your problems away with a nod and a wave of my hand, 'cause that's just the kind of boy that I am" This is referring to all the fans who idolize them, and think of it as an escape from all of their problems. "Crowds are won and lost and won again but our hearts beat for the diehards" Here they are saying that some people love them, some people hate them, but they play for the music, and what it does for the fans.

This is all I have so far.

These are all just my opinions and I hope they were of some use.
