The former president seemed inappropriately gleeful at one point.

Former president George W. Bush was so tickled by a Dallas choir's rendition of "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" that he couldn't help but dance as he held hands with First Lady Michelle Obama at a memorial service for Dallas police officers ambushed during a protest against police brutality.

Other officials appear to have been made visibly uncomfortable by Bush's inappropriate display of joy during a moment of national grief. Still, Laura Bush and First Lady Michelle Obama clasped the former president's hands tightly, perhaps afraid of what might happen if they let go.

Watch George W. Bush have way too much fun at the memorial service.
