- Remember, remember, the 5th of November
- The Gunpowder Treason and plot ;
- I know of no reason why the Gunpowder Treason
- Should ever be forgot.
- Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes,
- 'Twas his intent.
- To blow up the King and the Parliament.
- Three score barrels of powder below.
- Poor old England to 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!
- Hip hip Hoorah !
- Hip hip Hoorah !
- A penny loaf to feed ol'Pope,
- A farthing cheese to choke him.
- A pint of beer to rinse it down,
- A faggot of sticks to burn him.
- Burn him in a tub of tar,'
- Burn him like a blazing star.
- Burn his body from his head,
- Then we'll say: ol'Pope is dead.
I wanted to light a bonfire today, like they do in England on Guy Fawkes Day, but I only lit a candle... I think the concept still counts, though.
I'm not going to be obsessive and watch V for Vendetta a thousand times... I'm not even going to re-read the graphic novel or anything. I'm spending this evening in reflection, with a lit candle. Good enough, you think?
I always talk about how I really hate the "American" concept of living, and how I'm going to end up moving to Europe somewhere when I'm older, but despite that, I am happy I live in America where we are free to think, speak, and act as we so please... I know there are flaws with our system, but they're a lot less numerous than with some governements...
So that's my ramble for today...
Other than that... I had another performance for the school musical today... T'was fun. I really didn't do much besides....
I should've done homework, but I decided to be lazy.
