Spring was never waiting for us dear
It ran one step ahead
As we followed in the dance
MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, nooooo
I recall the yellow cotton dress
Foaming like a wave
On the ground beneath your knees
The birds like tender babies in your hands
And the old men playing chinese checkers by the trees
MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, nooooo
MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet green icing flowing down
Someone left my cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to make it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, nooooo
Is this the best song ever in the history of the entire universe?
And Donna Summer does it so much better than Richard Harris.

Do you know the Weird Al parody, "Jurassic Park?" That always makes me laugh.
I love it when you get all geeky about music.
I used to sing at the top of my lungs to that song when I was a little girl. LOL. I have always liked her! :)
what do you think Donna's trying to say with these lyrics?
I just think it's very odd to mention baking a cake whilst strolling through a park.
I'm a total geek.
I've always liked Donna, too.
The cake is her relationship.
oh for christs sake...... I'm sick of seeing that bloody woman when I log on to your blog..... hurry up and post something new.

Donna bloody Summer. She's lasted longer on your blog than most summers in Scotland... and that's about 5 days now.
I know you're in Bournemouth but you can easily take your mum for a coffee in an internet cafe hen.
I didn't pay my monthly subscription fee for nothing.
By the way, it's your Birthday on 3rd June, right?
Yes, I'll be 29 on the third of June!
