Andrew W.K. puts his money where his heart is -- New York City.
"Run it over, run them out
Knock your block, or tearing your doubt
Move on corners, move around
Talk no talk, breaking you down
"
This verse, while not really containing any information about New York City, is an essential part of the song. It shows the beauty of AWK's rhymes; he's not just out to party, he also wants to show you that he's got soul. He knows how to rhyme, and he doesn't want every song on his album to sound the same. Thus, the I Love NYC ballad.
"I love New York City
Oh yeah, New York City
I love New York City
Oh yeah, New York City "
The repeating of New York City along with love shows that Andrew W.K. has a deep understanding and love of New York's favorite city (sorry, Albany!) and he isn't afraid to show it.
I am finding it tough to continue without getting misty-eyed, but for the sake of the understanding of this song I will continue. It is important to note that W.K. is not just writing filler for his album, NYC really touched him and he wants to show it. Now if you'll excuse me, I think i have something in my eye.
