Paperback Writer

[Intro]

Paperback writer...

[Verse 1]

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

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

Steady job, but he wants to be a paperback writer

Paperback writer

[Chorus 1]

Paperback writer...

[Verse 2]

It's a thousand pages, give or take a few

I'll be writing more in a week or two

I could make it longer if you like my style

Change it 'round and I want to be a paperback writеr

Paperback writer

If you really likе it, you can have the rights

It could make a million for you overnight

If you must return it, you can send it right here

But I need a break, and I want to be a paperback writer

Paperback writer

[Chorus 2]

Paperback writer...
