Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, T'was His Intent

Purely because it's been a tradition on this blog since 2007, here's this years Guy Fawkes post. Honestly, it's far less in honour of someone who tried to blow up the British Parliament, and more in honour of my love for V For Vendetta.

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
!
