Halloween Cabaret songs for bass

One of the local companies has invited me to take part in their regular cabaret nights at a local adult beverage establishment -- the October one, where they're pushing a Halloween theme. I need to come up with a song list -- probably about a half dozen. Here were some thoughts I had. I'm a bass, so that could lend itself well to a few things if I could find them

"My Friends" from Sweeney Todd (I have a possible volunteer to do the Lovett bit, but it's still a perfectly good option solo, I think)
"Feed Me/Git It" from Little Shop (I have a Seymour to do that bit)
I was also considering "Dentist" from the same
"I Put a Spell on You" by Screamin' Jay Hawkins
"Monster Mash" by Boris Pickett
"One-Eyed One-Horned Flying Purple People Eater" by Sheb Wooley
"Re: Your Brains" and/or "Creepy Doll" by Jonathan Coulton (trickier, since there's no sheet music available)

Opinions on any of those and/or other suggestions?
Monsieur D'Arque

"WWhen You're Evil" by Voltaire is the best evil bass cabaret song ever.

I just got through my runthrough with the accompanist, and I have to say that you are 100% correct. That song is awesome beyond words, and putting the right timbre on it is just gravy. I'll try to get someone to record the performance Saturday, for it shall be epic.
