Bodies

This song is about a schizophrenic woman named Pauline who used to stalk the Sex Pistols and was fanatical about them. She lived in a treehouse on the estate of "Nut-house." One time, the nurses couldn't get her down so she'd live up there for days.

John Lydon: "She turned up at my door once wearing a see-through plastic bag. She did the rounds in London and ended up at everybody's door. Like most insane people, she was very promiscuous. The fetus thing is what got me. She'd tell me about getting pregnant by the male nurses at the asylum or whatever."

In Daniel Rachel's The Art of Noise: Conversations with Great Songwriters, lead singer Lydon says this is about "the rage and passion and pain of both sides of the abortion issue."
