是由美国女歌手Taylor Swift录唱的一首歌曲,被收录在其于2020年7月24日发行的第八张录音室专辑《Folklore》,为其所属专辑中的第3首歌曲。且空降2020年8月8日的公告牌百强单曲榜的第13位。
《Folklore》是一张突破Taylor固有风格的专辑,她的声音变得冷静而节制,不再有之前汹涌的控诉和骄傲的自信,多的是于无声处听惊雷的力量,她仿佛卸下了束缚和愤怒,转而陷入思索。隔离生活让Taylor在该专辑中变得比以往更加温柔,甚至有些忧伤,她重拾她拿手的风格,用简单的音乐形式将一个个故事娓娓道来。
The Last Great American Dynasty歌词:
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 B***h 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
