Guy Lyrics

Meeting in the Duck and Drake
A group of men planned to blow up the state
A catholic insurrection, a Jesuit rebellion
Backed by France and Spain

Remember, remember the 5th of November
Gunpowder, treason and plot
Guy Fawkes

Made his friends and enemies
Fighting in the low countries
Didn't want to separate
His politics and faith
But he hated the king

Betrayed in a letter to Lord Monteagle
They found Guy under the House of Lords.

For two days he was tortured
Then he was hung, drawn and quartered
They put his head on a pole.
