Penny For the Guy

Penny for the Guy Once the was a man called Guy Fawkes Who wanted to blow up Government in the gun powder plot Along with his pals, this they really meant But was caught and had his punishment And now we celebrate that he did not So that his plot would not be forgot This we do with Fireworks so loud and bright To remember what could have happened that night These are some that light up the night A Rocket up to the sky to light with colour bright And Catherine Wheels that go round and round With many a Cracker Jack that makes us deaf with the sound Bonfires we do have now on which is burn effigies of dear old Guy Made from straw and any old clothes who is placed on the top of the fire Though these do make much smoke, All of which would have happened if he had his way There we will place potatoes in jackets and get our Hot Chestnuts And light the Sparkler for us to hold and wave about To remember all that could have been that night When they tried to do that terrible deed So we will never forget that Guy That why we remember, remember the 5th of November 29/11/16
