Béchamel sauce enriched with cheese
And a splash of cream

Thickened with butter roux
G
Seasoned with bay

D7
Well I heard them say
C7
It’s all in the sauce
G-riff

G
Chicken and bacon on top of penne
Chicken and bacon and artichoke hearts
C
Artichoke hearts and artichoke minds
G
Artichoke bodies left behind

Well I heard them say
It’s all in the sauce

Let it simmer in a quart of milk
Fill it to the brim, stir in the silk
Stir out the lumps, boil them down
Stir out the feeling, stir out the sounds

Well I head them say
It’s all in the sauce

G
Béchamel sauce seasoned with bay
Repeat x 3
