Dear sir or madam will you read my book it took me years to wri-te
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 a 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

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

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
