Build Me Up Buttercup
Why do you build me up buttercup, baby?
(Build me up)
Just to let me down and mess me around
(Just let me down)
And then worst of all, you never call, baby
(Worst of all)
When you say you will but I need you still
(Say, you will)
I need you more than anything, darlin'
(I need you)
You know that I have, from the start
So, build me up buttercup, don't break my heart
(Build me up)
"I'll be over at ten", you told me time and again
But you're late, I wait around and then
(Bah, dah, dah)
I run to the door, I can't take any more
It's not you, why don't you treat me well?
(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 waiting by the phone for you
Ooh, oh, ooh, ooh, oh, ooh
Why do you build me up buttercup, baby ?
(Build me up)
Just to let me down and mess me around
(Let me down)
And then worst of all, you never call, baby

(Say, you will)
I need you more than anything, darling
(I need you)
You know that I have from the start
So, build me up buttercup, don't break my heart
(Build me up)
You were a toy but you could be the boy I adore
If you'd just let me go
(Bah, dah, dah)
Although you're untrue, I'm attracted to you more and more
What more can I say?
(Hey, hey, hey)
Baby, baby, I try to find
(Hey, hey, hey)
A little time and I'll make you happy
(Hey, hey, hey)
I'm alone waiting by the phone for you
Ooh, oh, ooh, ooh, oh, ooh
Why do you build me up buttercup, baby?
