03. the last great american dynasty [Hiphopde.com]

[00:13.01] Rebekah rode up on the afternoon train, it was sunny

[00:18.49] Her saltbox house on the coast took her mind off St. Louis

[00:25.25] Bill was the heir to the Standard Oil name and money

[00:30.75] And the town said, "How did a middle-class divorcée do it?"

[00:38.49] The wedding was charming, if a little gauche

[00:41.76] There's only so far new money goes

[00:44.75] They picked out a home and called it "Holiday House"

[00:51.25] Their parties were tasteful, if a little loud

[00:54.51] The doctor had told him to settle down

[00:58.01] It must have been her fault his heart gave out

[01:02.75] And they said

[01:04.25] There goes the last great American dynasty

[01:10.01] Who knows, if she never showed up, what could've been

[01:17.25] There goes the maddest woman this town has ever seen

[01:23.01] She had a marvelous time ruining everything

[01:30.26] Rebekah gave up on the Rhode Island set forever

[01:36.26] Flew in all her Bitch Pack friends from the city

[01:42.74] Filled the pool with champagne and swam with the big names

[01:45.51] And blew through the money on the boys and the ballet

[01:48.99] And losing on card game bets with Dalí

[01:54.52] And they said

[01:55.51] There goes the last great American dynasty

[02:02.25] Who knows, if she never showed up, what could've been

[02:08.74] There goes the most shameless woman this town has ever seen

[02:14.51] She had a marvelous time ruining everything

[02:22.26] They say she was seen on occasion

[02:25.01] Pacing the rocks, staring out at the midnight sea

[02:28.26] And in a feud with her neighbor

[02:31.01] She stole his dog and dyed it key lime green

[02:34.74] Fifty years is a long time

[02:37.50] Holiday House sat quietly on that beach

[02:41.26] Free of women with madness, their men and bad habits

[02:45.76] And then it was bought by me

[02:54.24] Who knows, if I never showed up, what could've been

[03:00.49] There goes the loudest woman this town has ever seen

[03:06.26] I had a marvelous time ruining everything

[03:12.74] I had a marvelous time ruining everything

[03:19.76] A marvelous time ruining everything

[03:26.25] A marvelous time

[03:32.51] I had a marvelous time
