Lyrics for Song: Paperback Writer
Lyrics for Album: Alive In Japan [2002]



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

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 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

Paperback writer

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 break and I wanna be a paperback writer

Paperback writer



It's a dirty story about 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
