A Spaniard in the Works is a book from 1965 by John Lennon. The
book consists of collections of Lennon’s humorous quips in prose or
poem form, accompanied by goofy cartoons, similar to the style of his 
previous book, 1964’s In His Own Write. The name is a pun on the 
expression "a spanner in the works".
