A bit of Gilbert and Sullivan's Mikado may perhaps enlighten us and lighten our spirit?
(MIDI: http://math.boisestate.edu/gas/mikado/html/so_please_you.html)

the young gals:
So please you, Sir, we much regret
If we have failed in etiquette
Towards a man of rank so high--
We shall know better by and by.
But youth, of course, must have its fling,
So pardon us, so pardon us,
And don't, in girlhood's happy spring,
Be hard on us, be hard on us,
If we're inclined to dance and sing. Tra la la la la
(Dancing.)


the august Pooh-bah personage:
I think you ought to recollect
You cannot show too much respect
Towards the highly titled few;
But nobody does, and why should you?
That youth at us should have its fling,
Is hard on us, is hard on us;
To our prerogative we cling--
So pardon us, so pardon us,
If we decline to dance and sing. Tra la la la la
