Paperback Writer

Lennon McCartney

Paperback writer, Paperback writer.
Dear Sir or Madam would 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 j ob,
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,
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.
lf you really like it you can have the rights,
It could make a million for you overnight,
lf you must return it you can send it here,
But I need a break,
And I want to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.
