Why do you build me up
Buttercup, baby
Just to let me down and mess me around
And then worst of all you never call, baby
When you say you will
But I love you still
I need you more than anyone, darling
You know that I have from the start
So build me up, buttercup, don't break my heart
"I'll be over at ten", you tell me time and again
But you're late, I wait around and then
I run to the door, I can't take anymore
It's not you
You let me down again
Hey, hey, hey
Baby, baby, try to find
Hey, hey, hey
A little time and I'll make you happy
I'll be home
I'll be beside the phone waiting for you-uuu-uuu
Why do you build me up (build me up)
Buttercup, baby
Just to let me down (let me down) and mess me around
And then worst of all (worst of all) you never call, baby
When you say you will (say you will)
But I love you still
I need you (I need you) more than anyone, darling
You know that I have from the start (ah-ah-ah-ah)
So build me up, buttercup, don't break my heart
To you I'm a toy
But I could be the boy you adore
If you'd just let me know (bah-ra-ra)
You're untrue, I'm attracted to you all the more
Why do I need you so
(Hey, hey, hey)
Baby, baby, try to find
(Hey, hey, hey)
A little time and I'll make you happy
(Hey, hey, hey)
I'll be home
I'll be beside the phone waiting for you-uuu-uuu
Why do you build me up
Buttercup, baby
Just to let me down (let me down) and mess me around
And then worst of all (worst of all) you never call, baby
When you say you will (say you will)
But I love you still
I need you (I need you) more than anyone, darling
You know that I have from the start (ah-ah-ah-ah)
So build me up, buttercup, don't break my heart
I I I I need you more than anyone, darling
You know that I have from the start
So build me up, buttercup, don't break my heart
