Hello. I'm looking for funny/comic songs for soprano + Piano.

I need suggestions!

Thank you

"A Word on My Ear" by Flanders and Swann (not PD). Hilarious, but difficult. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbmaDetZsO4

"Art is calling me" (Prima Donna song) by Victor Herbert (not PD). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mku1rrKpF5g

"If somebody there chanced to be" from Ruddigore is rather subtle in its humor, but very charming. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHkOIFBZigA

If you've got the chops for it, "Glitter and Be Gay" can be very funny. That's all I can think of off the top of my head.
