Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
\nthe Gunpowder Treason and Plot,<\/p>\n

I see no reason why Gunpowder Treason should ever be forgot.
\nGuy Fawkes, t’was his intent to blow up King and Parliament.<\/p>\n

Three score barrels were laid below to prove old England’s overthrow;
\nBy God’s mercy he was catch’d with a dark lantern and lighted match.<\/p>\n

Holloa boys, holloa boys, let the bells ring.
\nHolloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!<\/p>\n

Hip hip hoorah!<\/p>\n

A penny loaf to feed the Pope
\nA farthing o’ cheese to choke him.<\/p>\n

A pint of beer to rinse it down.
\nA faggot of sticks to burn him.<\/p>\n

Burn him in a tub of tar.
\nBurn him like a blazing star.<\/p>\n

Burn his body from his head.
\nThen we’ll say ol’ Pope is dead.<\/p>\n

Hip hip hoorah!
\nHip hip hoorah hoorah!<\/p>\n
