POLYTHENE PAM
(Lennon-McCartney)
1969
At the time, John said he had sung "Polythene Pam" in a thick Liverpool
accent "because it was supposed to be about a mythical Liverpool scrubber
dressed up in her jackboots and kilt." Later he admitted that it was a
composite of a character from their Cavern days known as Polythene Pat and a
girl he'd met in 1963 with the British beat poet Royston Ellis.
Well you should see Polythene Pam
She's so good looking but she looks like a man

Yes you should see her in drag dressed in her polythene bag

Get a dose of her in jackboots and kilt

(Ah)

Yeah, come on now okay, oh look out
