Strange Names and New Sensations
Strange Names
I'm from Piscataway, I'm going that-a-way,
West on the Jersey map, out towards the Water Gap,
Oh, h-ho ho,
Oh, h-ho ho.
I've seen Parsippany, northwest of Whippany,
Mahwah to Hackensack, I've made the trip and back,
Oh, h-ho ho,
Oh, h-ho ho.
Strange names, north New Jersey's got 'em,
Them strange names towns,
Strange names, north New Jersey's got 'em,
Them strange names towns,
Oh, h-ho ho.
Hoboken's got me stressed, I'm going to motor west,
Out Succasunna way, Netcong or Rockaway,
Oh, h-ho ho.
Oh, h-ho ho.
North New Jersey's got strange names towns a lot,
Your cool local spot may or it may have not,
Your cool local spot may.
I've seen Paramus, well, that's next to Oradell,
Hohokus takes the cake, wait, that'd be Cheesequake!
Oh, h-ho ho,
Oh, h-ho Ho-ho-kus
Strange names, north New Jersey's got 'em,
Them strange names town,
Strange names, North New Jersey's got 'em,
them strange names towns,
Oh, h-ho ho.
North New Jersey's got strange names towns a lot,
Your cool local spot may or it may have not,
Your cool local spot . . .
North New Jersey's got strange names towns a lot,
Your cool local spot may or it may have not ,
Your cool local spot may.
I'm from Piscataway, I'm going that-a-way
