Well, first, I applaud your knowledge of classical music. I had to look all of those up on YouTube.
I wrote this comic with "Sweet Georgia Brown" in mind--as it's used as the punch line, and the princesses are tossing the ball around just over Jinjur's head, like the Globetrotters do in their act. ;)
Thing is, I have since learned that not everybody is familiar with the Harlem Globetrotters, or know that "SGB" is their theme tune, or that the Globetrotters' tune is called "Sweet Georgia Brown."
Business in F is fairly close in spirit, but I think even fewer people would have "gotten" that reference. As I said, I needed to look it up on YouTube.
If I had to change the punch line so more folks who are not familiar with the Harlem Globetrotters would get it, I'd probably go with "You can stop whistling "Ring Around The Rosie" any time now--!"

Sweet Georgia Brown works, it’s a grand choice, although to my thinkings a fast big band version of it would work the best, but that’s just me. I wasn’t thinking Business In “F" as a reference as much as exciting background music for mad scramble you’ve created. Thanks for the complement- I like to think I stayed awake in music history in junior high. Oy, I just thought- How about using The Ride of the Valkyries?
