Part of the lyrics go like
MacArthur 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 the recipe again Oh No
Originally released in 1968, the song went for 7 minutes 21 seconds
