Lyrics:

'Paperback Writer'

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 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

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
Paperback Writer

Paperback Writer

Paperback Writer, Paperback Writer
Paperback Writer, Paperback Writer
Paperback Writer, Paperback Writer
Paperback Writer, Paperback Writer (Fade Out)
