Jimmy Webb's lyrics to "MacArthur Park," which Richard Harris first made famous, read, "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..." Aside from describing the park's destruction, this chorus could also symbolize...
...loss of Betty Crocker's Easy American Desserts cookbook. (Chip C.)
...the chance in a lifetime that is spoiled by another's desire, envy, or hate. (Karen B.)
...a friendship/relationship that both of you have let stagnate, and now, you can't get it back. Or a wet dog. (Lisa G.)
