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 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 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, but I want to be a paperback writer If you really like it you can help me write It can 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.  submitted by Tashi E. corrected by Tom Klas |

96 posts | This song is so much greater than anyone knows, I think! There's a reason why it's been number 1 
Luv it! |
