Musical Notes: The Brown Sauce Sandwich Song

Here’s an example of the original short draft version of a script, and then you can listen to how it evolved into the final production (you can listen to it at the bottom).

LEE B:
Is that it?

DR. STRANGEGLOVE:
Yeh.

LEE B:
It’s not much of a song is it?

DR. STRANGEGLOVE:
Shut up.

“Free duck with every bottle!”

“Goes with anything… Chips, chocolate, scuba-divers, willow-trees, bath salts…”

“I always keep a bottle of BROWWWWWWN SAUCE next to my bed. It keeps the Phantom Leg Locker away…!”

Warning! Regular consumption of brown sauce can be hazardous to your health.

It can make you talk and act just like the eeeeeh man.

Always read the label. If symptoms persist please contact your nearest brain surgeon.

And here’s what it sounded like when we made it.
