Why do you build me up Buttercup, baby



Just to let me down and mess me around yeah



And worst of all you never call, baby



When you say you will but I need you still



I need you more than anyone, darling



You know that I have from the start



So build me up Buttercup, don't break my heart

----------------------------------------

"I'll be over at ten", you tell me time and again



But you're late, I wait around and then



I went to the door, I can't take any more



It's not you, why do you treat me bad?

Baby, baby, I try to find



A little time well I'll make you mine



I'll be home



Waiting by the phone waiting for you



Ooo-oo-ooo, ooo-oo-ooo

You were a toy but you could be the boy I adore



If you'd just let me know



I've build you up to, I'm attracted to you more and more



Well, what can I say?

-----------------------------------------
