Build Me Up Buttercup Lyrics

Why do ya build me up (build me up)
Buttercup baby, just to let me down (let me down)
You mess me around
You know 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) but buttercup, don't break my heart

This happened again
You'll be "over at ten", but you're late
I wait around and then
I went to the store
I can't take anymore, without you
You let me down again

(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
Right beside the phone, waiting for you
Ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo

Why do ya build me up (build me up)
Buttercup baby, just to let me down (let me down)?
You mess me around
You know 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) and 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
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
Right beside the phone, waiting for you
Ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo

Why do ya build me up (build me up)
Buttercup baby, just to let me down (let me down)?
You mess me around
You know 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), you know darlin' I need ya
You know that I have from the start
So build me up (build me up) and buttercup, don't break my heart

You know that I have from the start
So build me up (build me up) and buttercup, don't break my heart
Don't break it, don't break my heart
