They Seek Him Here

Would you be so kind?
I call it "The Scarlet Pimpernel"

They seek him here
They seek him there
Those Frenchies seek him everywhere
Is he in heaven or is he in hell?
That demned elusive Pimpernel

More to come, more to come! I said "brief," not "infinitesimal"!

He meddles with the Frenchie Revolution
Popping in and out each week
Spoiling ev'ry lovely execution
La, what cheek!

They seek him here
They seek him there
Those Frenchies seek him everywhere
If you should see him, please do give a yell -
That demned elusive Pimpernel!

They seek him here!
They seek him there!
Those Frenchies seek him everywhere!

Oh, Pimpy, how the Frenchies do implore you
Simply to stay home in bed
With all your interference, it's a chore
To chop a head!

They seek him here!
They seek him there!
The ladies seek him everywhere!

He gives the Frenchies nothing but frustration
Sink me, he's a spoilsport!
Each and ev'ry demned decapitation
He cuts short!

Inspired, Highness! Inspired!
Quite so!
Everyone!

They seek him here!
They seek him there!
Those Frenchies seek him everywhere!
Is he in heaven or is he in hell?
That demned elusive Pimpernel!
