I've written a few...
Unfortunately my best work is generally sarcastic and humorous rather than somber/serious.
Example:
Gas in Sweden
Road trip
To Sweden
I checked prices for gas
One ninety a gallon
At gidervorktongast
Across the street
At a buck ninety-one
The fjordenshirkinkeet
And lavortakortijum.
Buying gas in Sweden
Beats buying gas in town.
One ninety in Sweden
(Cuz nine tenths sure don’t round down)
Finland’s also one ninety
I researched them all
Too bad that
The air-fare
Outprices them all.
So I’m stuck in Dayton
At two twenty-nine
When gidervorktongast
Was still one ninety nine
My road trip to Sweden
Ended quite abruptly
5 minutes down the road
By Sunoco and BP.
Buying gas in Sweden

(I apologize for the grammatical errors. They are intentional and i believe that they are excusable in a song, particularly one with a humorous tone).
Also...
No, they are not really Scandinavian names. The only Swedish/Scandinavian gas station I know of is called st1. I merely am exaggerating what little I know of the Scandinavian tongues.
