Temptations - Build Me Up Buttercup lyrics

rate me

Why do you build me up (Build me up) buttercup, baby<br />

<br />

Just to let me down (Let me down)and mess me around<br />

<br />

And then worst of all (Worst of all) you never call, baby<br />

<br />

When you say you will (Say you will) but I love you still<br />

<br />

I need you (I need you) more than anyone, darlin'<br />

<br />

You know that I have from the start<br />

<br />

So build me up (Build me up) buttercup, don't break my heart<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

"I'll be over at ten", you told me time and again<br />

<br />

But you're late, I wait around and then (Bah-dah-dah)<br />

<br />

I run to the door, I can't take any more<br />

<br />

It's not you, you let me down again<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

(Hey, hey, hey!) Baby, baby, try to find<br />

<br />

(Hey, hey, hey!) A little time, and I'll make you happy<br />

<br />

(Hey, hey, hey!) I'll be home<br />

<br />

I'll be beside the phone waiting for you<br />

<br />

Ooo-oo-ooo, ooo-oo-ooo<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

Why do you build me up (Build me up) buttercup, baby<br />

<br />

Just to let me down (Let me down) and mess me around<br />

<br />

And then worst of all (Worst of all) you never call, baby<br />

<br />

When you say you will (Say you will) but I love you still<br />

<br />

I need you (I need you) more than anyone, darling<br />

<br />

You know that I have from the start<br />

<br />

So build me up (Build me up) buttercup, don't break my heart<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

To you I'm a toy but I could be the boy you adore<br />

<br />

If you'd just let me know (Bah-dah-dah)<br />

<br />

Although you're untrue, I'm attracted to you all the more<br />

<br />

Why do I need you so<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

(Hey, hey, hey!) Baby, baby, try to find<br />

<br />

(Hey, hey, hey!) A little time and I'll make you happy<br />

<br />

(Hey, hey, hey!) I'll be home<br />

<br />

I'll be beside the phone waiting for you<br />

<br />

Ooo-oo-ooo, ooo-oo-ooo<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

Why do you build me up (Build me up) buttercup, baby<br />

<br />

Just to let me down (Let me down) and mess me around<br />

<br />

And then worst of all (Worst of all) you never call, baby<br />

<br />

When you say you will (Say you will) but I love you still<br />

<br />

I need you (I need you) more than anyone, darling<br />

<br />

You know that I have from the start<br />

<br />

So build me up (Build me up) buttercup, don't break my heart<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

I need you (I need you) more than anyone, baby<br />

<br />

You know that I have from the start<br />

<br />

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