How about "Charmin's Lament" from The Magic Show? It must be printed in a Stephen Schwartz volume somewhere...

How about "Ladies who Lunch" it is fun and you can make it funny and your own.

"Gorgeous" or "Movie Star" from Apple Tree.
"Happily Ever After" from Once Upon A Mattress

She's too young for "Ladies Who Lunch."

What about Bells Are Ringing? U have The Bonjour Tristesse Company ?

"Perfect Relationship" from Bells would be ADORABLE! And I believe the correct name of the song youre thinking, sabrelady, is "Im Goin Back."

"Charmin's Lament"
I'll definitely check this out. Thanks magruder!

"Ladies Who Lunch"
I agree with Plum that I am too young for this one. (5 days left as a teenager!) Thanks for trying Spider.

"Gorgeous"
"Movie Star"
I asked for a recording of The Apple Tree for my birthday, so hopefully I'll be able to find out about these without to much research. Thanks CurtainUp!

"Happily Ever After"
Intruiging prospect... I'm familiar with the song but I've never REALLY tried to sing through it. I'll have check the range and all, but I love the suggestion. Thanks again CurtainUp!

"Perfect Relationship"
"I'm Goin' Back"
I think my dad has a recording of "Bells Are Ringing" somewhere... I'll have to hunt it down and "borrow" it. Thanks sabrelady and CurtainUp!


My mom suggested some song from ShowBoat... cannot remember title... I'm going to look that one up to, as soon as I get back to my college (and the lovely music library we have there... small, but occasionally helpful.)

the song from show boat might be "the wicked stage"
you should also try "sooner or later" from Dick Tracy the musical. It might get a bit high, but it's really not that bad. It can be really fun without being over done.

Please let us know how it goes, BTW, "Pricklepear Bloom" has a Southern accent which you can ignore, also she says "bitch" which could be replaced with "witch".

I will definitely let you know what happens.
Thanks for the accent/witch heads up.

And HAPPY FREAKIN' BIRTHDAY!!!!
