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 noooooo best I can figure, you had to have been there? Aye an' a bit of Mackeral settler rack and ruin ran it doon by the haim, 'ma place well I slapped me and I slapped it doon in the side and I cried, cried, cried. Had to have been there too Last edited by tomana; 07-27-2014 at 12:35 AM. |

All the lyrics to Louie, Louie.... if there really are any. Ugh!
Also, the song Born to Run.... Beyond the palace Hemi-powered drones scream down the Boulevard Girls comb their hair in rear-view mirrors as the boys try to look so hard One can only surmise that Springsteen is psychic and knew about powerful government drones and Viagra way back in the 70's. Turning Japanese... Everyone around me is is a total stranger Everyone avoids me like a cyclone ranger, everyone Just what is a "cyclone ranger" anyway?

Ahhh, Louie Louie! Some thought that song contained "dirty" lyrics while others didn't. I never could quite tell myself! Hard to make 'em out. Last edited by ToneHunter; 07-27-2014 at 10:42 AM. Reason: Random character |

Thanks for the context. I knew about St. Genevieve and the '93 flood, but did not know all the details you have supplied. I always took that verse as commentary on traveling musicians out on the road for weeks at a time. "Seeing traces of the stars,(or scars, interchangeable in context), that came before. Hittin' the pavement, (the road) still askin' for more, (attention to their music, their performance and what they have to say as a band). When the hours don't move along, worn out wood and familiar songs...(travelling on a tour bus passing the time playing old songs on old guitars) To hear your voice is not enough, it's more than a shame"...(talking to your loved ones back home over the telephone just isn't enough) Funny how lyrics can mean different things to different people.

Guess I'm just a romantic. But Wikipedia says it's about a girl who broke into Paul's house and stole a bunch of stuff like photographs. She later returned them |

I think your perspective reinforces just what a powerful line it is; it can speak to us in different ways.

I believed Cane in defeat referred to the plant is no longer able to grow, is fallow.
