Use another song from a Jule Styne show. Perhaps one that is not done so much these days.
Fade Out Fade In or Hallelujah Baby.
Or listen to the 1962 recording of Little Me by Coleman/Leigh. The Other Side of the Tracks is done twice. The first time a a yearning girl's "I want" song and the reprise is a belt. Tie them together and do them both. They're each very short, under 2:00.
"If my life weren't funny, it would just be true. And that would be unacceptable."
