Getting born in the country of Great Britain
Don't know who he is, but he's here on a mission
Parliament building, he was gonna blow up
Price you gotta pay when your leaders get corrupt
He never knew that he was ever gonna meet a girl
What in the world? What did the government take him for?

Clothes all-black, and a Guy Fawkes mask
Destroy the Old Bailey with a big bomb attack
He's a vigilante, rebel, and a terrorist
On his merry way acting like an anarchist
Chancellor Sutler givin' off a bad vibe
Just another reason to die

V for Vendetta, rest in peace
Simultaneous release
V for Vendetta, show your face
Go hide now, cops on the chase
Yeah, yeah

You're a lover, and a freedom fighter
You can see it coming, the future's gonna be brighter
With a cause like V for Vendetta
Day was gonna come when Evey was gonna mourn ya
A little cunning, he was stealin' another breath
He loves his Evey to death

V for Vendetta, rest in peace
Simultaneous release
V for Vendetta, show your face
Put that Chancellor in his place
Yeah, yeah

Who knew the other side of you?
Who knew what others died to prove?
Too true to say good bye to you
Too true to say say say

Push the button, get the train movin'
Blow it up now and then you'll be cruisin'
Like the guy in The Count of Monte Cristo
Gotta love revenge more than you love your girl

Down in the Underground he was savin' the best for last
It only hurts when I laugh
Gone too fast

V for Vendetta, rest in peace
Simultaneous release
V for Vendetta, show your face
Covered in burns, hard to replace
Yeah, yeah

V for Vendetta, rest in peace
Simultaneous release
V for Vendetta, show your face
You're gonna miss it, Evey's embrace
Yeah, yeah
