Under the reign of King James the 1st Way back in 1605 Terror and pain, bans and distrust Religious oppression revived Wrath of the people grows quietly As they prepare their revolt One group of men stands decidedly Willing to achieve their plot When the fateful day would come They would overthrow the throne Down below the House of Lords Powder's ready to explode Risking their lives to bring justice back They planned the highest of crimes They'll kill the King, a brutal payback A new leader bound to arise Carefully planned, their final assault To blow up the Parliament's House Barrels of powder under the floor Waiting to be set afire When the fateful day would come They would overthrow the throne Down below the House of Lords Powder's ready to explode Now they've been found The plot has failed, time to fly Treason to the King The highest crime, now they shall die Remember, remember the fifth of November The gunpowder treason and plot I know of no reason Why the gunpowder treason Should ever be forgot! Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, t'was 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 Holla boys, holla boys, Let the bells ring Holla boys, holla boys, God save the King And what shall we do with him? I say, let's burn him! When the fateful day would come They would overthrow the throne Down below the House of Lords Powder's ready to explode Now they've been found The plot has failed, time to fly Treason to the King The highest crime, now they shall die
