about the teasing but I avoided it by keeping my emotions of Mac Park hid. Most of my peers at that time were not into the music of Jimmy Webb or the singers who sang his songs. I just never took to the rockers like the Doors, Joplin, Hendricks and so forth, mostly had to pretend that I did. Anyway here is what J-Webb says about MacArthur Park. The lyrics, meanwhile, were deeply personal: "In mid-1965, I was absolutely besotted with my girlfriend at the time. MacArthur Park was where we met for lunch and paddleboat rides and feeding the ducks. She worked across the street at a life insurance company."
