Paperback Writer

单曲唱片的封面是取自披头士的一次现场演出，但这时的约翰列侬和乔治哈里森已经对演出表示出了厌倦，现场演出之路也越走越窄。

Paperback writer

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,

Paperback writer.

It's the 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.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,

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.

列侬：“保罗[写]的。我想我可能在歌词上帮了点忙吧。对，我有帮忙。但主要是保罗的。” Hit Parader (1972年4月号); Road 支持列侬在歌词上的贡献; ATN 说全是麦卡尼的。

1966年的最初几天，麦卡尼协助筹办印迪卡书店(Indica Bookshop)，他的几个朋友开的。他跟着写的单曲就是 “Paperback Writer”。Salewicz

录音师杰夫安玛力克(Geoff Emerick)：“ ‘Paperback Writer’ 是首次低频声音听起来兴奋度是全情释放。第一次，保罗使用了一把不同的低音结它，一枝 Rickenbacker。然后，为了将低音的力度更为加强，他把音箱反过来作米高风用。我们将它直接对着低音音箱，用「米高风」的纸盘震动产生电流。”虽然是音响效果改善了，但发明这个方法的肯汤逊(Ken Townsend)，却被教堂街录音室高层以使用不匹配阻抗的理由而遭到谴责。Abbey

约翰：节奏结它(Gretsch Nashville [model PX6120])、和唱。

保罗：Rickenbacker 低音结它。

乔治：主音结它 (Gibson SG Standard)、和唱。

林戈：鼓。
