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
So build me up
(build me up)
Buttercup, don't break my heart
I'll be over at ten, you told me time and again
But you're late
I wait around and then
I ran to the door, I can't take anymore
It's not 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
(youuu youuu)
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
So build me up
(build me up)
Buttercup, don't break my heart
You were my toy but I can't be the boy
You adore
If you just let me know
Although you're untrue, I'm atraccted to you
All the more
Why do I need you 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
(youuu youuu)
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
So build me up
(build me up)
Buttercup, don't break my heart
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
So build me up
(build me up)
Buttercup, don't break my heart
