Paperback Writer

Paperback writer

Dear Sir or Madam
Will you read my book
It took me years to write
Will you take a look

Based on a novel
By a man named Lear
And I need a job
So I want to be a paperback writer
Paperback writer

It's the dirty story
Of a dirty man
And his clinging wife
Doesn't understand

His son is working
for the Daily Mail
It's a steady job
But he wants to be a paperback writer
Paperback writer

It's a thousand pages
Give or take a few
I'll be writing more
In a week or two

I can make it longer
If you like the style
I can change it 'round
And I want to be a paperback writer
Paperback writer

If you really like it
You can have the rights
It could make a million
For you overnight

If you must return it
You can send it here
But I need a break
And I want to be a paperback writer
