Skater Planet
Attention skaters, please clear the rink while the ice is resurfaced
Thank you for your patience!
It's Saturday night at Skater Planet
The Zamboni's on the ice
So, we hang around here waiting
All the action's at the mall
But we'd rather be here skating
The action's at the mall
But we'd rather be here skating
Ah
In New Jersey
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, oh-oh
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, oh-oh
It's Saturday night in Bergen County
There are parties everywhere
But we never get invited
And I'm with the one I love
I'm with the one I love
I'm with the one I love
I'm with the one I love
But my love goes unrequited
I'm with the one I love
But my love goes unrequited
Ah
Nothing's right
Nothing is what it should be
Shoes are stinky, pay's not great
Skating's free, but I can't skate
'Cause my ankles tend to roll
In New Jersey
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, oh-oh
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, oh-oh
It's Saturday night in Buttcrack Township
On a road without a sign
In a town where there's not much in
Forty minutes east of Hope
Forty miles from Metuchen
(I'm with the one I love)
It's Saturday night and I'm the new girl
So I get to start from scratch
Next to Lodi, this is dreamy
Sure, tonight I'm getting looks
But tomorrow they might see me
(I'm always getting looks)
They never really see me
In New Jersey
In New Jersey
In New Jersey
Nothing's right (nothing)
Nothing is what it should be (is right)
I'm too awkward
I'm too bright
I'm too anxious
I'm too polite
We're too chipper, we're too loud
We don't blend into a crowd
We're too weird in every way
I think Springsteen's just okay
Which is not a thing to think
In New Jersey
At least we have the rink
In New Jersey
Ah
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, oh-oh
Thank you for your patience!
