John Lennon Question

I've been listening to Plastic Ono Band recently, and love the track "Remember".

But I do have one question - the last line of the song runs like this: "No, no, remember, remember/The fifth of November".

What does that refer to - November 5? Can anyone enlighten me here?

On the night of November 5th, throughout Britain, bonfires are set alight, effigies are burned, and fireworks are set off. The people do this to commemorate their country's most notorious traitor: Guy Fawkes.
