WHEN YOU'VE GOT IT, FLAUNT IT

"Ven you got it, flaunt it
Step right up and strut your stuff
People tell you modesty's a wirtue
But in the theatre modesty can hurt you
Ven you got it, flaunt it
Show your assets, let them know you're proud
Your goodies you must push
Stick out your chest, shake your tush
Ven you got it, shout it out loud
Now Ulla dance.
Ven you got it, show it
Put your hidden treasures on display
Violinists love to play an E-string
But audiences really love a G-string
Ven you got it, shout it!
Let the whole vorld hear vat you're about
Clothes may make the man
All a girl needs is a tan
Ven you got it, let it hang out!
Remember ven Ulla dance?
Ulla dance again!
Ven I was yust a little girl in Sveden
My thoughtful mother gave me this advice
If nature blesses you from top to bottom
Show that top to bottom, don't think twice
Now Ulla belt!
Don't think twice!
Ven you got it, share it
Let the public feast upon your charms
People say that being prim is proper
But ev'ry showgirl knows that prim will stop her
If you got it, give it
Don't be selfish, give it all a-vay
Don't be shy, be bold 'n' cute
Show the boys your birthday suit
Ven you got it, if you got it
Once you got it, shout out hooray!"

Thanks for all the songs they are proving so much help.

Thought of another, try Soho Cinders. I'm So Over Men is hilarious, but probably a little blue judging by what you said earlier. It's Hard to Tell, Wishing for the Normal, and Fifteen Minutes all pretty funny, but none are a patch on I'm So Over Men.

If they don't have to be musical theatre songs, I'd check out some of the songs Bette Midler did in her concert tours. I'm thinking...

Fat as I Am
Long John Blues
Pretty Legs, Great Big Knockers
Otto Titsling
some of the medleys she does as Dolores Dalago (the toast of Chicago)

How about Adelaide's Lament?

Good one! Or "Marry The Man Today."
or how about "There's always a Woman" cut from Anyone Can Whistle?

Has no body mentioned "Dainty June and her Farmboys" yet?
Leigh Ann Larkin does it hilariously.

"Sara Lee"

By Kander & Ebb,
used in "And The World Goes Round",
but written as a piece of special material for (I think) Kaye Ballard. This is an ode to the joys of that dessert brand,

"Don't Put Your Daughter on the Stage" by Noel Coward.

There are three verses. Usually the first is done quite slowly, almost spoken, and very, very polite with long careful pauses as if you are choosing the words with care. The second has a bit of an edge to it and is more insistant. The third verse is done fast, furious, irate and 'how-dare-you'.

I think "Everybody Ought to Have a Maid" is very funny (It's from "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum"-most of that score is pretty funny)
"A Little Priest" is pretty funny if done tongue-in-cheek (it's clever humor, don't know if that's really what you're looking for)
"I'm Not Dead Yet" from "Spamalot" is funny as well
