Time for the charm bomb to explode

Hey musical theater nerds :) I'm auditioning for Annie the musical at the end of the month at a community theater I've never auditioned at before. I'm going for Lily St. Regis. Any audition song recs? Just a minute's worth of a song/32 bars. I'm an alto and struggling to find a song I am 100% comfortable with. I'm also caught between wanting to do something fun and peppy, and picking something slower because I don't want the accompanist to have to sight read something crazy fast. Here are some of the songs I've been trying out or thinking of so far:

Right Hand Man from Something Rotten

Not for the Life of Me from Thoroughly Modern Millie (a little ambitious for me...not totally comfortable with it. Starting with "Burn the bridge, bet the store")

Screw Loose from Cry Baby

How 'Bout a Dance from Bonnie and Clyde (haven't tried it yet)

There are Worse Things I Could Do from Grease (haven't tried it yet)

EDIT: I've decided on If My Friends Could See me Now from Sweet Charity. I think it's the perfect vibe and it doesn't feel too risky. I'd still appreciate tips and/or song recs for future auditions! Just getting back into the world of musical theater after a long hiatus.

Sup. Literally been inactive on this site for almost a decade...but hey, I started writing fanfic again for the first time in 10 years as well, so I guess I'm just regressing to my college self over here. If you're interested in reading a Wedding Singer fanfic about Holly and Sammy, click the link and head on over. I just got my first real review, so more chapters are on their way! Kthanks, bye~

Made one of these the other night because I decided it needed to be done. I think it turned out nicely. :D

Peter Pan came to get me, and we got about halfway out the window and I said something and he turned around and said I was too grown up… and he couldn’t take me anymore. Keep in mind I’m 20 years old… and I woke up crying because I was too grown up to go to Neverland. (I think all I said was ‘but I have an interview tomorrow’)

“Both of us are widowers. We met last year at a dance for seniors. He treats me so much better than my husband ever did. My husband treated me like a stray dog. He used to beat me. He’d get angry, and yell, and break things. He’d always say that I’d never meet someone else. But this man is different. He always tells me that he loves me. He always wants to be with me. He makes me feel like a princess.” (São Paulo, Brazil)
