Build Me Up Buttercup

Tony Macauley, Mike D'Abo

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 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, darling
You know that I have from the start
Build me up (Build me up)
Buttercup, don't break my heart

I'll be over at ten, I told your 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
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
I'll be beside the phone waiting for you

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 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, darling
You know that I have from the start
Build me up (Build me up)
Buttercup
Don't break my heart

You wanted a toy, but I could be the boy you adore
Why did you let me go?
Although you're untrue
I'm attracted to you all the more
Why do you treat me 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
I'll be beside the phone waiting for you

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 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, darling
You know that I have from the start
Oh build me up (Build me up)
Buttercup
Don't break my heart

I need you (I need you)
More than anyone, darling
You know that I have from the start
Oh build me up (Build me up)
Buttercup
Don't break my heart
