The Sixth of November

Day after the Gunpowder Plot!

I can think of no reason

Why the day after the treason

Has always been forgot!

Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, he prob'ly was framed

So that he that would forever be shamed

Thirty score barrels of powder below

Did not prove England's overthrow

Bad grammar to say that he was "catch'd"

With a dark lantern and burning match

Holla boys, holla boys, let the bulls sing!

Holla boys, holla boys, God save the King!

And what shall we do with him? Hang, draw and quarter him but have him jump of the scaffold while he's being hung so that he'll break his neck and die and not have to face the crueler punishment later on!
