So Cometh November

So cometh November, when bonfires burn And fireworks streak through the sky, To remember a gang, with a murderous plan In which a king and his government die. So we stand round a fire, and gleefully admire As we burn a Guy Fawkes effigy, If it had worked, If the gunpowder blew, What then, would say history.
