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 darlin'
You know that I have from the start
So build me up
Build me up
Buttercup don't break my heart
I'll be over at ten I told you time and again
But you're late I waited 'round the bend
Bah-dah-dah
I run to the store I can't take any more
Without you you let me down again
Hey hey hey
Baby baby I try to find
Hey hey hey
A little time and I'll make you mine
Hey hey hey
I'll be home
I'll be beside the phone waiting for you
Ooh-oo-ooh
Ooh-oo-ooh
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 darlin'
You know that I have from the start
So build me up
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-dah-dah
Although you're untrue I'm attracted to you all the more
Why do you treat me so
Hey hey hey
Baby baby I try to find
Hey hey hey
A little time and I'll make you mine
Hey hey hey
I'll be home
I'll be beside the phone waiting for you
Ooh-oo-ooh
Ooh-oo-ooh
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

But I love you still
I need you
I need you
More than anyone darlin'
You know that I have from the start
So build me up
Build me up
Buttercup don't break my heart
I need you more than anyone darling
You know that I have from the start
So build me up
Build me up
Buttercup don't break my heart
