CHORUS: Why do you build me up, Buttercup, baby

Just to let me down, and mess me a-round?

And then worst of all, you never call, baby

When you say you will, but I love 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

VERSE 1: "I'll be over at ten," you told me time and a-gain

But you're late, I'm waiting 'round and then

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

It's not you, you let me down again.

MIDDLE 8: (Hey, hey, hey) Baby, baby, try to find

(Hey, hey, hey) A little time, and I'll make you happy,

I'll be home, I'll be be-side the phone waitin' for you (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE 2: To you I'm a toy, but I could be the boy you a-dore

If you'd just let me know.

Al-though you're un-true I'm at-tracted to you all the more

Why do you treat me so?

REPEAT MIDDLE 8, then REPEAT CHORUS
