Polythene Pam Lyrics:
Well you should see Polythene Pam
She's so good-looking but she looks like a man
Well you should see her in drag dressed in her polythene bag
Yes you should see Polythene Pam
Yeah yeah yeah
Get a dose of her in jackboots and kilt
She's killer-diller when she's Jacked to the Hilt
She's the kind of a girl that makes the "News of the World"
Yes you could say she was attractively built
Yeah yeah yeah
~The Beatles recorded on Abbey Road

Okay. Apparently, I started a series without knowing it. I’ve done three shots inspired by Beatles’ songs from “Abbey Road,” which if you didn’t know, is one of their albums. It’s funny to do pictures from their songs, because some of their lyrics are just nonsense. Brilliant nonsense of course ;)
They have a song called Polythene Pam. The lyrics are:
Well you should see Polythene Pam
She's so good-looking but she looks like a man
Well you should see her in drag dressed in her polythene bag
Yes you should see Polythene Pam.
Yeah yeah yeah
Get a dose of her in jackboots and kilt
She's killer-diller when she's dressed to the hilt
She's the kind of a girl that makes the "News of the World"
Yes you could say she was attractively built.
Yeah yeah yeah.
Polythene is a type of material used in some plastic garbage bags. And “News of the World,” is probably a newspaper. So, in the picture, I made a fake newspaper, and Polythene Pam is the cover story. And I had no idea how to depict “so good looking but she looks like a man.” So I just put on a fancy dress and added a mustache.
I didn’t want to use myself for the picture, but none of my friends were available, and I wanted to get the picture done today.

You know that medley from Abbey Road? The one that starts with You Never Give Me Money and ends (appropriately) with The End. This is a collaboration, with my good pal, fountaincoke, of the middle part: Mean Mr. Mustard, Polythene Pam, She Came In Through the Bathroom Window & Golden Slumbers.
TOTW: State of Mind [Total blast. It was so much fun figuring this all out and working together though we were far apart. Thanks so much, Erin, for going along with my crazy ideas and sharing yours with me!]
