Why Gunpowder Treason

It's that time of the year again! I should just schedule a bunch of these for the next few years so that I don't have to do this.

Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,

I know of no reason

Why Gunpowder Treason

Should ever be forgot.


Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, t'was his intent
 
To blow up King and Parliament.
Three-score barrels of powder below

To prove old England's overthrow;

By God's providence he was catch'd

With a dark lantern and burning match.

Holloa boys, holloa boys, let the bells ring.

Holloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!


Dust off that copy  V For Vendetta and enjoy!
