Macarthur Park Edit Meaning

1.

A park in Los Angeles, also the title of one of the most awful songs ever, where the parks 'melts in the dark', like a cake left out in the rain.

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 that recipe again! Oh noooooooooo!
