Tom's, and that Elusive Pimpernel, Moonstone

For one more time, the nefarious Scarlet Pimpernel Moonstone has struck 
Francophile's everywhere.   Who is this Moonstone?

They seek him here, they seek him there, those Frenchies seek him 
everywhere.  That damned elusive Pimpernel visage, The Scarlet Moonstone,

Yes, it WAS a French "Top Secret".  It was the secret method used to 
hold "Le Toupee" on the head with the Citroen vehicle's top down.  MI-6 
stole the plans, British Intelligence decoded it into the King's 
English, mysteriously, from the French "Head Topping Fixer", to the the 
English "Hood Fixer", and we have been stuck with that miserable design 
since.  And the hair pieces still fly like loose newspapers around the M-1.
