Why do you build me up (Build me up) buttercup, baby

When you say you will (Say you will) but I love you still

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

To you I'm a toy but I could be the boy you adore

Although you're untrue, I'm attracted to you all the more

Why do I need you so
