“Polythene Pam”

Another Lennon song that was considered but not used for the White Album. Polythene is a form of plastic used for trash bags, etc., and John knew a girl that actually ate the stuff. After the band broke up, Lennon was quite dismissive of many songs he wrote with the Beatles. John called it “a bit of crap I wrote while in India.” I don’t understand that mindset, but then I don’t have the inner demons most creative people do, either.
