Artist: American Juniors

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Pop

  • Songwriters: Michael D'abo, Tony Macaulay

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
So build me up
(Build me up)
Buttercup, but don't break my heart

I'll be over at ten, you told me time and again
But you're late, I wait around and then
I run 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, 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
So build me up
(Build me up)
Buttercup, but 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 by nature 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, 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
So build me up
(Build me up)
Buttercup, but don't break my heart

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
