Paul 'Biff' Rose is an American singer-songwriter.

Biff Rose worked as a comedian in the early sixties. By 1966 he had landed in Hollywood, working primarily as a sketch writer for television variety shows. Eventually, Rose took up with the songwriting he developed during his youth growing up in New Orleans. A song co-written with Paul Williams, Fill Your Heart, was recorded by both Tiny Tim, and David Bowie.

Rose began writing lyrics for his piano songs. One of Rose's songs was later recorded by John Denver. Much of Rose's music was comedic, and politically minded. Rose also performed on Johnny Carson's "Tonight Show".

TheTetragrammaton label released his debut in 1968. Rose also recorded albums for United Artists, Pacific Arts, and the Buddha label. He returned to music in 1996. He has since released three other self released disks.
