Summer's kickin' in, I can feel the heat
Comin' through my car window
Friday nights are red brake lights
Stuck in here like cargo
[Chorus]
Dead or alive on the 405
Traffic's moving like a slug
Dead or alive on the 405
Stuck behind a '68 bug
And I might make (a hundred?)
If I ever make Redondo tonight
I'm going in cold on a pick-up gig
And in between the classic sticks
You play your hit from '89
I'll sing mine from '95
[Chorus]
Dead or alive on the 405
Traffic's moving like a slug
Dead or alive on the 405
Behind some hippies in a '68 bug
And I might make (a hundred?)
If I ever make Redondo tonight
Doot doot do do doot
Just like Ronnie sang, just like Ronnie sang
Doot doot do do doot
