I thought the original line was “I _hate_ to disillusion you lady, but you’re sucking on my elbow.”

Edit: I just checked, and search results indicate “'I hate to disillusion you, ma’am, but you’re sucking on my arm.”

Mel quotes it as “Excuse me, ma’am, but your sucking on my arm.” I really don’t think Mel, Richard or Cleavon would ever say “disillusion.” 😛

A lot of discussion here for a line that was never actually included in the movie –

But what the hell, I started it. [Here’s a draft of the script](https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pages.drexel.edu%2F~ina22%2Fsplaylib%2FScreenplay-Blazing_Saddles.pdf). Possibly not the final version.

Pg. 77, Scene 153

> On the old _ **SNL** _, they managed to get “Pussy Whip: The first dessert for cats” past the censors. They failed, however, when it came to “Golden Showers” (a ritual of a cult of sun-worshippers in Southern California) and the “blowhole” organ humans would acquire through evolution.

On the Simpsons, there’s an episode where Kent Brockman says [“Thanks, Mayor Simpson! Because of you, we’re all taking _golden_ showers!”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLKRfLI7oBE)
