[Intro]
So build me up
Buttercup, don't break my heart
Why do you–

[Verse]
Yeah
Why do you do it to me? (Do it to me)
My love for you consumes me (You consumes me)
When you're around, it's perfect (Perfect)
But when you leave, it's gloomy (Yeah)
Can't keep my head on straight
Your beauty takes my breath away
I wait in line to see your face
Been camped out here since yesterday (That's right)
And you (You)
You know how to build me up and break me down
But I just keep on coming 'round
Hoping that one day, you'll love me too
I'll do whatever you choose
Pull my strings to make me move
I'm just here for your amusement
Yeah

[Chorus]
Oh why do you build me up?
Buttercup, baby
Just to let me down–
