Dead or Alive on the 405

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

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 Hummer

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

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 Hummer

If I ever make Redondo tonight

Just like Ronnie sang, just like Ronnie sang

Gimme my Eddie Money

Dead or alive on the 405

Traffic ain't moving yet

Dead or alive on the 405

Now it's a gray hair in a new Corvette

Dead or alive on the 405

I'm just a cover band drummer

Stuck behind a Hummer

On the 405, dead or alive

Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on

Dead or alive on the 405

Dead or alive

I won't play Mustang Sally

We'll have write up, Nickelback, L.A.

Dead or alive on the 405

Dead or alive on the 405

Dead or alive on the 405

Dead or alive, dead or alive
