Taylor Swift unveils the ‘empowering’ history of her favorite ‘Folklore’ lyric

Grammy award-winning singer Taylor Swift sheds light on her real story behind her empowering Folklore compositions and the lyric that speaks to her the most.

The singer finally decided to get got candid with People magazine and was quoted saying, “I'm really proud of 'She had a marvelous time ruining everything' from 'The Last Great American Dynasty' because it's about what happens when women step out of their cages and run.”

"It can be a real pearl-clutching moment for society when a woman owns her desires and wildness and I love the idea that the woman in question would be too joyful in her freedom to even care that she's ruffling feathers, raising eyebrows, or becoming the talk of the town. The idea that she decided there were marvelous times to be had, and that was more important."

The lyric in question has been inspired by Rebekah Harkness philanthropic works and it reads, "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.”
