1
Why do you build me up (build me up) Buttercup, baby
2
Just to let me down (let me down) and mess me around
3
And then worst of all (worst of all) you never call, baby
4
When you say you will (say you will) but I love you still
5
I need you (I need you) more than anyone, darlin'
6
You know that I have from the start
7
So build me up (build me up) Buttercup, don't break my heart
8
"I'll be over at ten", you told me time and again
9
But you're late, I wait around and then (bah-dah-dah)
10
I went to the door, I can't take any more
11
It's not you, you let me down again
12
(Hey, hey, hey!) Baby, baby, try to find
13
(Hey, hey, hey!) A little time and I'll make you mine
14
(Hey, hey, hey!) I'll be home
15
I'll be beside the phone waiting for you
16
Ooo-oo-ooo, ooo-oo-ooo
17
Why do you build me up (build me up) Buttercup, baby
18
Just to let me down (let me down) and mess me around
19
And then worst of all (worst of all) you never call, baby
20
When you say you will (say you will) but I love you still
21
I need you (I need you) more than anyone, darlin'
22
You know that I have from the start
23
So build me up (build me up) Buttercup, don't break my heart
24
You were my toy but I could be the boy you adore
25
If you'd just let me know (bah-dah-dah)
26
Although you're untrue, I'm attracted to you all the more
27
Why do I need you so
28
(Hey, hey, hey!) Baby, baby, try to find
29
(Hey, hey, hey!) A little time and I'll make you mine
30
(Hey, hey, hey!) I'll be home
31
I'll be beside the phone waiting for you
32
Ooo-oo-ooo, ooo-oo-ooo
33
Why do you build me up (build me up) Buttercup, baby
34
Just to let me down (let me down) and mess me around
35
And then worst of all (worst of all) you never call, baby
36
When you say you will (say you will) but I love you still
37
I need you (I need you) more than anyone, darlin'
38
You know that I have from the start
39
So build me up (build me up) Buttercup, don't break my heart
40
I-I-I need you-oo-oo more than anyone, baby
41
You know that I have from the start
42
So build me up (build me up) Buttercup, don't break my heart
