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)
(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
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
(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!)
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!)
(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

Why do you build me up
I'll be beside the phone waiting for you
Ooh-oo-ooh

(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?
