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 a dirty story of a dirty man,

And his clinging wife doesn't understand.

His son is working for the (Daily,Mirror)( a news paper, but I'm not sure on the spelling)

It's a steady job,

But he wants to be a paperback writer,

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 could 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.
