Lyrics:

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 say you'll call, baby
But you never will (said you will), and I love you still
I need you (I need you) more than anythin', darlin'
You know that I have from the start (aah)
So, build me up (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 again (hey-hey-hey)
I walk to the door, I can't take any more
But it's you, you let me down again
(Hey, hey, hey!) Baby, baby, I try to find
(Hey, hey, hey!) A little somethin' and I can make you mine
(Hey, hey, hey!) I'm here at home
Sittin' beside the phone, waitin' for you
Ooh-whoo (ooh-whoo)
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 say you'll call, baby
But you never will (said you will), and I love you still
I need you (I need you) more than anythin', darlin'
You know that I have from the start (aah)
So, build me up (build me up), Buttercup, don't break my heart
You are the toy, but I could be the boy you adore
If you'd just let me know (hey-hey-hey)
I walk to the door, I can't take any more
But it's you, you let me down again
(Hey, hey, hey!) Baby, baby, I try to find
(Hey, hey, hey!) A little somethin' and I can make you mine
(Hey, hey, hey!) I'm here at home
Sittin' beside the phone, waitin' for you
Ooh-whoo (ooh-whoo)
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 say you'll call, baby
But you never will (said you will), and I love you still
I need you (I need you) more than anythin', darlin'
You know that I have from the start (aah)
So, build me up (build me up), Buttercup, don't break my heart
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 say you'll call, baby
But you never will (said you will), and I love you still
I need you (I need you) more than anythin', darlin'
You know that I have from the start (aah)
So, build me up (build me up), Buttercup, don't break my heart
