歌词
dear sir or madam, will 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 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.
