Paperback Writer

Paperback writer (paperback writer, 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 a 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

It's a thousand pages, give or take a few (Frère Jacques)
I'll be writing more in a week or two
I could make it longer if you like the style (Frère Jacques)
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 (Frère Jacques)
It could make a million for you overnight
If you must return it, you can send it here (Frère Jacques)
But I need a break, and I want to be a paperback writer
