Rebekah rode up on the afternoon train, it was sunnyHer saltbox house on the coasttook her mind off St. LouisBill was the heir to the Standard Oil name and moneyAnd the town said"How did a middle-class divorcée do it? "The wedding was charming, if a little gaucheThere's only so far new money goesThey picked out a home and called it "Holiday House"Their parties were tasteful, if a little loudThe doctor had told him to settle downIt must have been her fault his heart gave outAnd they saidThere goes the last great American dynastyWho knows, if she never showed upwhat could've beenThere goes the maddest woman this town has ever seenShe had a marvelous time ruining everythingRebekah gave up on the Rhode Island set foreverFlew in all her Bitch Pack friends from the cityFilled the pool with champagne and swam with the big namesAnd blew through the money on the boys and the balletAnd losing on card game bets with DalíAnd they saidThere goes the last great American dynastyWho knows, if she never showed upWhat could've beenThere goes the most shameless womanthis town has ever seenShe had a marvelous time ruining everythingThey say she was seen on occasionPacing the rocks, staring out at the midnight seaAnd in a feud with her neighborShe stole his dog and dyed it key lime greenFifty years is a long timeHoliday House sat quietly on that beachFree of women with madnesstheir men and bad habitsAnd then it was bought by meWho knows, if I never showed upwhat could've beenThere goes the loudest woman this town has ever seenI had a marvelous time ruining everythingI had a marvelous time ruining everythingA marvelous time ruining everythingA marvelous timeI had a marvelous time
