Lyrics
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, darlin'
You know that I have from the start
So build me up (build me up) buttercup, 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 (bah dah dah)
I went to the door, I can't take any more
It's not you, you let me down again
baby, baby, try to find
(Hey, hey, hey) a little time and I'll make you mine
(Hey, hey, hey) I'll be home
I'll be beside the phone waiting for you
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
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, darlin'
You know that I have from the start
So build me up (build me up) buttercup, don't break my heart
You were my toy but I could be the boy you adore
If you'd just let me know (bah dah dah)
Although you're untrue, I'm attracted to you all the more
Why do I need you so?
baby, baby, try to find
(Hey, hey, hey) a little time and I'll make you mine
(Hey, hey, hey) I'll be home
I'll be beside the phone waiting for you
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
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, darlin'
You know that I have from the start
So build me up (build me up) buttercup, don't break my heart
I, I, I need you more than anyone, baby
You know that I have from the start
So build me up (build me up) buttercup
Songwriters: Tony Macauley / Mike D'Abo

This song makes me think of the early/mid 2010s bc my mom worked for diamond sports, a baseball company, and she would get Angel’s/Dodgers tickets from her boss every few months. And this song plays during the 7th inning stretch at Angel’s Stadium, and it makes me sad and nostalgic every time I hear it.

Thank you everyone for your beautiful comments. My mother, Sylvia and our family are delighted to see the joy this catchy song still brings to so many around the world! My father, Barry Class was an incredible man. He went on to live a life rich in creativity, meaning, abundance, and purpose..The Foundations were the 1st mixed band in England to hit #1 in the charts.These fine fellows created a hit song that brought us to this moment ☆celebrating joy even through times of heartache and pain. Thanks Buttercup 🌼🌼🌼 And thanks Dad, we love you. ❤❤❤♥️

And I do enjoy some music now, but not pop, hip hop or rap, that stuff 🤢not music.

Don't forget to optimize the video further by simply clicking the gear icon in the bottom right of the video window and selecting the highest appropriate video quality setting for your device (no higher than 720p if you're not sure) Thanks for this sweet little gem by the way and also a shoutout to the google ad or w/e it was that reminded me this song existed. Hope every one has a blessed life and that this song will help us understand that when she, yeah she, is messing you around, you tell her to kick rocks and if you never hear from her again then i promise it was the 100% best possible decision an assertive man of dignity and logic could have made.

Wikipedia - The Foundations were a British soul band who were primarily active between 1967 and 1970. The group's background was: West Indian, White British and Sri Lankan. Their 1967 debut single "Baby Now That I've Found You" reached number one in the UK and Canada, and number eleven in the US. Their 1968 single "Build Me Up Buttercup" reached number two in the UK and number three on the US Billboard Hot 100. The group was the first multi-racial group to have a number one hit in the UK in the 1960s.[1]

leah My grade school was cool I was afraid my school mates would laugh at me because I had so many IRISH Freckles on my face, Turned out I was a ladies man the girls said my Freckles were cute on my face. Us O'GRADY boys must have been good looking these girls came to our house sometimes right after school to bad they were 8-9 year olds. Crazy 70s kids drinking beer at 14 years old. 8th grade we had a girl that looked like Steavie Nicks from Fleetwood Mac. I grew up watching Partridge Family & Brady Bunch. I was born a PISCES born to like Music, I went to Stadium concerts at 12 years old, saw Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Doobie Brothers, LYnyrd Skynyrd, Allman Brothers, Alice Cooper, I was a lucky pearson my Girlfriends liked to Party like me. They say girls like IRISH Men. I admit us IRISH are Different born with Red Hair & Freckles. It is true most IRISH like there Alcohol, Doesnt help most IRISH songs are about Drinking Hey we have our IRISH Dancing, Not funny most people think all IRISH are Drunks, & even today REDHEADS get Bullied. Funny some people think our Freckles are Bug Bites. Not gonna Lie us O'GRADY Family we liked our Alcohol. IRISH Familys are known for having lots of kids. I knew I was IRISH both Mom & Dad had IRISH last names O'GRADY & KELLY. Mom side gave us kids 12 first cousins. Again not gonna Lie being IRISH we liked our Alochol.
