I can explain it in terms that would be more familiar to your generation:

It's like the time that Mozart had a falling-out with a soprano who had a part in his opera Cosi fan tutte, and he deliberately wrote an aria for her with a lot of octave jumps, because singing it forced her to bob her head up and down like a chicken. Remember that? 1790, I think it was.

That reminds me of the scene in Harvey where the singer was singing formal, then belted out Hop, Hop, Hippity Hop, and everything was bobbing up and down.
