Funny/Character Songs

Hey guys! I really need a good, funny/character piece. I'm an alto. I've done a search already and posted, but nothing sparked me. The clicnher? It can only be a minute and a hald of the song. Also, something talk singy would be nice, 'cause I don't really have a belt. I'm an actress who sings not really a singer.
What i was looking at but probably won't do:
"How lucky you are" and "notice me horton" Seussical (i donno if i could handle that one vocally)
"Nothing" Chorus line - too long, can't cut
"Trip to the library" - see above (i hate cutting story songs)
"Just one Step" - SFANW (our teacher likes us to do things more age appropriate/storyish song)
"Adelaides Lament" and "Perfect Relationship" were both done in preveious years.
Thanks preemptively!

"Doing What Comes Naturally." from Annie Get Your Gun.

Not sure how long it is, but...my brains refusing to work, and doing a search didn't work out so well.

Thanks, Priest and Monkey. "..Philosophy" might be a bit too belty, but I was looking into "Little Known Facts" from the same show. Ill definitely look into "I know things now". I LOVE Into the Woods!

Taylor the Latte Boy is cool, but I'm an alto as well and it's too belty for me sometimes.

What about Count Fosco's song from The Woman in White?

Logic from Dance of the Vampires is pretty funny

If you're looking for something really good, but it's a tongue-twister, try the Chancellor's Nightmare Song in Gilbert and Sullivan's Iolanthe.

"Happily Every After" Once Upon A Mattress?

I dunno, just heard of it because we are doing it in our fall show.

"Hundred Easy Ways...." from Wonderful TOwn is funny and you can talk-sing.
