Sir or Madam, would 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 and I want to be a paperback writer 
Paperback writer 
It's the dirty story about a dirty man 
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 
I'll be writing more in a week or two 
I can make it shorter if you like the style 
But I need a break and I wanna 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 wanna be a paperback writer
