Remember, Remember the 11th Of September

The Neo-Con horrific PNAC Plot,
I see of no reason why The September Treason
should ever be forgot.

The Neo-Cons, The Neo-Cons,
'twas their intent
To Bring Down The Towers, And Down They Went.
Three Planes hijacked, in the early morning rush
Three Planes used as missles, and where was Dear Leader Bush?


Cowed in a Classroom, sitting silent as teacher Spoke
With a Deer in headlight look as the children read 'My Pet Goat.'

Holloa boys, holloa boys, make the bells ring!
Holloa boys, holloa boys, Bush Is now your Puppet King!
Hip hip hoorah!

And Now we make war in the distant sand
Where we were told a Madman held WMD's in his hand
American and Iraqi blood spills on the soil
Not for freedom, nor democracy, nor liberation
But for profit, power, control, and Oil

And now we are told to never forget
The day 3000 fell and The World with us wept
We must never question the reasons they gave us
They tell us to obey for only they can save us

But that which they fear most is that some will Stop
And think for themselves and see the real Truth.....

MIHOP

Remember, Remember The 11h of September
The Neo-Con horrific PNAC Plot

I see of no reason why The September Treason
should EVER be forgot.

2. And you should base your views on PNAC ideology,
which is the only reality. They create reality and you should obey..

Sweet naive little consumer of mass media myths...

3. Penny for the guy?
It goes further back than V for Vendetta. TheWatcher is modernising an old English rhyme about Guy Fawkes. The Wikipedia article on Guy Fawkes night gives one version of the original:

The night is closely associated with the popular rhyme which begins:

Remember, remember the fifth of November,
Gunpowder Treason and Plot,
I see no reason why the gunpowder treason
should ever be forgot.


The full rhyme, rarely used, continued:

Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes,
'twas 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.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, make the bells ring.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!
Hip hip hoorah!


These verses are usually left out of modern day recitations of the poem:

A penny loaf to feed the Pope.
A farthing o' cheese to choke him.
A pint of beer to rinse it down.
A faggot of sticks to burn him.
Burn him in a tub of tar.
Burn him like a blazing star.
Burn his body from his head.
Then we'll say ol' Pope is dead.
Hip hip hoorah!
Hip hip hoorah!


The rhyme was often started 'Please to remember the fifth of November'.
