the last great american dynasty lyrics

Rebekah rode up on the afternoon train, it was sunny

Her saltbox house on the coast took her mind off St. Louis

Bill was the heir to the Standard Oil name and money

And the town said "How did a middle-class divorcée do it?"

The wedding was charming, if a little gauche

There's only so far new money goes

They picked out a home and called it "Holiday House"

Their parties were tasteful, if a little loud

The doctor had told him to settle down

It must have been her fault his heart gave out

And they said

There goes the last great American dynasty

Who knows, if she never showed up, what could've been

There goes the maddest woman this town has ever seen

She had a marvelous time ruining everything

Rebekah gave up on the Rhode Island set forever

Flew in all her Bitch Pack friends from the city

Filled the pool with champagne and swam with the big names

And blew through the money on the boys and the ballet

And losing on card game bets with Dalí

And they said

There goes the last great American dynasty

Who knows, if she never showed up, what could've been

There goes the most shameless woman this town has ever seen

She had a marvelous time ruining everything

They say she was seen on occasion

Pacing the rocks, staring out at the midnight sea

And in a feud with her neighbor

She stole his dog and dyed it key lime green

Fifty years is a long time

Holiday House sat quietly on that beach

Free of women with madness, their men and bad habits

And then it was bought by me

Who knows, if I never showed up, what could've been

There goes the loudest woman this town has ever seen

I had a marvelous time ruining everything

I had a marvelous time ruining everything

A marvelous time ruining everything

A marvelous time

I had a marvelous time
