"Polythene Pam" is a song written by John Lennon, credited to Lennon–McCartney, and performed by the Beatles on their album ''Abbey Road''. The song is the part of the B-side medley. ==Background and composition== The song was originally introduced during ''The Beatles'' sessions; a demo from the Esher Sessions can be found on ''Anthology 3''. Lennon would describe this song, along with "Mean Mr. Mustard", in ''The Beatles Anthology'' as "a bit of crap I wrote in India". In 1980, John Lennon said about "Polythene Pam": "That was me, remembering a little event with a woman in Jersey, and a man who was England's answer to Allen Ginsberg...I met him when we were on tour and he took me back to his apartment and I had a girl and he had one he wanted me to meet. He said she dressed up in polythene, which she ''did''. She didn't wear jack boots and kilts, I just sort of elaborated. Perverted sex in a polythene bag. Just looking for something to write about."〔Sheff, David. ''All We Are Saying''. 2000, St. Martin's Griffin, ISBN 0-312-25464-4, p. 203〕 The song is sung in a very strong Liverpudlian "Scouse" accent. ''Polythene'' is a British variant of the word polyethylene, a plastic material. The name 'Polythene Pam' came from the nickname of an early Beatles' fan from the Cavern Club days, named Pat Hodgett (now Dawson), who would often eat polythene. She became known as 'Polythene Pat'.〔 She said in an interview, "I used to eat polythene all the time. I'd tie it in knots and then eat it. Sometimes I even used to burn it and then eat it when it got cold."〔
