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 the 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

You had some of your own Well, I had a few lines myself And though we couldn’t afford any of them Well they still hurt like hell As the ink fades now, it’s easy to forget About the days we used to love We were them passionate fools Who defied every rule Just to say we’d had enough But it’s a little too late now I spent that summer alone Yeah, I ran around without you I missed that look in your eyes On them cool August nights Who could forget that shade of blue? I’d watch that damn sunrise with you But it’s a little too late now We had to find our way And it’s okay that we slowed it down Though the ink may fade Our hearts stay the same But it’s a little too late now Yeah, and I still miss the way that we talk I meant to call when they boarded up our favourite spot Its unfair we all get lost in this dying town But it’s a little too late now We had to find our way And it’s okay that we slowed it down Though the ink may fade Our hearts stay the same But it’s a little too late now It’s just a little too If one thing were different Maybe we’d have both stayed the same The only thing that I regret Is the way it had to end that day Oh why’d it have to end that way You have some of you own Now, they run around just like you With a look in their eyes I’ve seen so many times When we were punks yeah we were fools We'll always have these damn tattoos But it’s a little too late now We had to find our way And it’s okay that we slowed it down Though the ink may fade Our hearts stay the same But it’s a little too late now We had to find our way Though the ink may fade Our hearts stay the same
