| yea, you really think john would write a song on an issue such as abortion? john didnt care. he was out to upset people and hope that people would take it literally and be pissed. which is why john lydon is one of my idols. sid isn't worth the words nor time mentioned in this message board. he was a body. the sex pistols didn't even need him. and dont even say that he made the pistols look punk because that was all johnny's doing. he's the real deal. | |

| This song is actually a true story, believe it or not. Pauline was a girl who used to stalk the band a bit, and did live in a tree! | |

| on the program Classic Album's, johnny rotten says it's a true story, this crazy girl came to his house with a foetus in a clear plastic handbag, so he decided to write a song about it. he also says it's neither pro- or anti-abortion, just thought provoking. | |

| I think this is more of an ironic, anti-anti abortion song. | |

| johnny's delivery of the line "she was a bloody disgrace" is bloody fantastic. i always thought this was strongly anti-abortion, but reading these posts have cleared that up for me, cheers. i always thought it a bit strange for lydon to have an opinion on a moral issue. | |

| John said that it's not for or against abortion. Pauline was a mad fan who used to turn up everywhere. She had a funny way of knowing where the band was. | |
