LYRICS
作词 : Taylor Swift/Aaron Dessner
作曲 : Taylor Swift/Aaron Dessner
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
50 years is a long time
Holiday House sat quietly on that beach
Free of women with madness, their men and bad habits
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
