The Time Had Come

All of God got together

Unleashing thunder with a feather

Wondering if they could ever save the ground

In the grey stone grey court down in Edgartown

All the people, they did agree

That it was time to cut down the tree

And we'll all watch it fall on down

In the grey stone court of Edgartown

Though one girl does sleep today

Still the world will have its say

And so one's fate must drown

In the grey stone court of Edgartown

Everyone said the time should come

When a leader like Lee he'd become

Now the shame is hidden beneath the ground

Of the grey stone grey court of Edgartown

We all hope justice will prevail

Here come Pontius Pilate with thy nail

And the cross, it too, it must soon come down

In the grey stone grey court of Edgartown

Now even the Bible tried to teach us

That some men won't always reach us

But they too soon must step down

In the grey stone grey court of Edgartown

When the battle is finally over

When our sweat is replaced with clover

New cases will all come down

To that grey stone grey court of Edgartown

In that grey stone grey court of Edgartown

In the grey stone grey court of Edgartown
