Ghostbusters News appears to have connected the dots and revealed that the song was used in a re-worked form in a different movie starring [Dan Aykroyd](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/dan-aykroyd):

[A reworked rendition of the rejected Ghostbusters theme song appears on 1987’s Dragnet soundtrack](https://ghostbustersnews.com/2021/06/22/a-reworked-rendition-of-the-rejected-ghostbusters-theme-song-appears-on-1987s-dragnet-soundtrack/)

Hah, even with the new lyrics you can hear where the “Ghostbusters!” used to be in the chorus.

Still a load of “meh!”.
