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

You told me time and again

But you're late

I wait around and then

Bah-dah-dah

I went to the door

I can't take any more

It's not you

You let me down again

Hey hey hey

Baby baby you 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

Ooo-oo-ooo

Ooo-oo-ooo

Why do you build me up

Build me up

Buttercup baby

Just to let me down

And then worst of all

Worst of all

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

You were my toy

But I could be the one 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 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

Ooo-oo-ooo
