I'm writing a musical right now and I'm looking for inspiration. The song I have in mind for the Act One finale centers around the main character calling someone out for all the crap that they've done. I've tried looking up songs that have a similar theme, but no one's made a specific collection yet. So I figured I'd ask on here. Does anyone have any good songs for calling someone out?

I think the reprise of "Someone Gets Hurt" does that too, and even better.

“It’s All Over” and sort of “Family,” both from Dreamgirls

"Franklin Shepard Inc." - Merrily We Roll Along (Manic but generally comical)
"Is This What You Call Love?" - Passion (A true call out, very aggressive)
"Don't Ah Ma Me" - The Rink (comic)
"Eunuch's Testimony" - The Visit (Done by her servants; comic but biting)
"Look Over There" - La Cage Aux Folles (A loving call out)
