Why do you build me up (build me up) Butt-er-cup,
ba-by Just to let me down (let me down)and mess
me a-round And then worst of all (worst of all)
you nev-er call, ba-by When you say you will
(say you will) but I love you still
I need you (I need you) more than an-y-one,
dar-lin'
You know that I have from the start
So build me up (build me up) Butt-er-cup, don't
break my heart
"I'll be ov-er at ten", you told me time an a-gain
But you're late, I wait a-round and then
I run to the door, I can't take an-y-more
It's not you, you let me down a-gain
(Hey, hey, hey!) Ba-by, ba-by, try to find
(Hey, hey, hey!) A lit-tle time, and I'll make
you hap-py
(Hey, hey, hey!) I'll be home
I'll be be-side the phone wa-iting for you...
Ooo-oo-ooo, ooo-oo-ooo
