the beatles - paperback writer lyricspaperback 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
