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

It's the dirty story of a dirty man

And his clinging wife doesn't understand

It's a steady job but he wants to be a paperback writer

I'll be writing more in a week or two

If you must return it  you can send it her
