Facts:
  • It was supposed to have sirens, but all I could manage was background harmonies. (BidoLitos)
  • Inspired by the untimely death of my friend Steve Schnathorst, August 3, 1971. (BidoLitos)
  • It played just once on Dr. Demento -- Doc had me sign a release -- then it was never heard from again! (BidoLitos)
  • I got the idea for the descending piano figure from a Duke Ellington tune (BidoLitos)
  • Song Lyrics:
    You're ridin' with your woman out on Highway 9
    You got a lotta love -- you had a little wine
    Then just when everything is goin' just fine
    You'll have a traffic accident.

    Happens on highways, byways, lanes,
    County roads, and the big freeway.
    Almost anyplace you go, almost any time of day
    They're havin' traffic accidents.

    And the ambulance comes
    And they take you away
    You get your name in the papers
    The next day
    With a quote from the doctor
    And the doctor say:
    "He had a traffic accident yesterday."

    Billy and Willie, they drove cross-town
    Lookin' for Johnny -- but Johnny ain't around.
    They asked Johnny's brother, and he said with a frown:
    "He had a traffic accident."

    Fat ol' Bob, he had nothin' to fear
    A "389," and too much beer.
    Must not of seen that stop sign too clear!
    There was a traffic accident.

    And the ambulance came
    And they took 'im away
    He got his name in the papers
    The next day
    With a quote from the doctor
    And the doctor say:
    "He had a traffic accident yesterday."

    Everybody likes drivin', 'cause drivin's nice,
    So I'm tellin' ya once, I'm tellin' ya twice
    Keep your hands on the wheel -- take my advice:
    Don't have a traffic accident.

    (BidoLitos)
