don't forget

Remember, remember the fifth of November The gunpowder treason and plot. I see no reason why gunpowder treason Should ever be forgot. Guy Fawkes, twas his intent To blow up king and parliament. Three score barrels were laid below To prove old England's overthrow.

By God's mercy he was catched
With a dark lantern and lighted match.
Holler boys, holler boys, let the bells ring
Holler boys, holler boys, God save the King.

Tell me - why was it a good thing that he was caught???
Don't forget the fifth of November - when a man who should have succeeded, faild. The people should not be afraid of their government - the government should be afraid of the people...
