Paperback Writer

Lyrics

Paperback writer... Dear Sir or Madam, will you read my book? It took me years to write, will you take a look? It's 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 'bout 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 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, but 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 Paperback writer Paperback writer... Paperback writer Paperback writer Paperback writer Paperback writer Paperback writer Paperback writer...
