Non-smartass reply. A start, at least.
Much better link for same info...
Another hit (or miss, depending)

I want to make up my own tune, or a tune not on your list. Can I do that?
We usually do not make up custom tunes for the general public. It is a time consuming, expensive and tedious process. A minimum of 2,000 pieces is required. It generally takes a year+, between the arrangement process and delivery. In addition, your order may be bumped for larger orders. All orders must be prepaid and there are no refunds on custom tunes.
If you would like to order a custom tune, please send in a tape recording of the tune played on a piano or similar, send in arrangement of sheet music, usually 16 bars of music in 4/4 time, a signed release form by the individual who owns the rights to the music and a check for $6,000  . (Preferably a bank check).
This will cover the cost of 2,000 pieces (which is the minimum) of tunes only. (approx. $3.00 each). Any additional charges, such as freight, will be billed later on. The orders take from 4 to 6 months lead time. You will receive 2M,18 note Japanese mechanical wind up movements only and does not include the cost of the box to put it in. You would have to initiate development of that beginning with design, cost ,etc. We could help you with that but you would need the musical part first. There is absolutely no way to make up just one unit.

This mechanical route is looking hard, expensive and slow. I second wolf's suggestion to go electronic if you MUST have that tune.
