6. Mac Arthur's Park is Melting in The Dark....
All the sweet green icing pouring 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 neveer have the recipe again -
Oh, no-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-

22. How about Tom T Hall's (???) "I Like Beer"
I seem to remember a flashback of him singing it on Hee Haw during my youth.

I Like Beer,
It makes me a jolly good fellow,
I like beer..

Whisky's too rough,
Champagne cost too much,
And vodka puts my mouth in gear,
This little refrain,
will help me explain,
as a matter of fact,
I like Beer!

17. Whiter Shade of Pale...
Procul Harem


PROCUL HARUM

A WHITER SHADE OF PALE - 08/06/1967
6 weeks at #1 - 15 weeks on chart

We skipped the light fandango
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick
But the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
As the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
The waiter brought a tray

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale

She said, There is no reason
And the truth is plain to see
But I wandered through my playing cards
And would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open
They might have just as well've been closed

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale




HUH??????

27. Someone left the cake out in the rain.
I don't think that I can take it.
Because it took so long to bake it.
And I'll never have that recipe again.

Oh no.

I thought the lyrics to Seasons in the Sun were pretty far removed from real life.
