      this was relised in 1992 so if you were 14 then you'd be 46 now, I don't think that counts as nearly 70

      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.

    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 run 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

    Buttercup, don't break my heart
    To you I'm a 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

    I heard this on Wonderama. My older cousins called in to local LA radio stations to play it(along with Desmond Dekkars, Israelites, which was also played on Wonderama). The DJs told us it was an older song that hadnt charted. But I guess that many others had heard it on Wonderama too and within 2 weeks it was a big hit on LA radio, especially “BOSS RADIO” 93 KHJ. I’m going to have the DJ play this song at our 45th Wedding Anniversary.

    One of those sad songs...when you listen to lyrics...but with a happy tune to it. Always a favorite. I enjoy the covers that have music suit the lyrics, but in those years, everything had to be something "the kids" could dance to.

    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 run to the door, I can't take any more
    It's not you, you let me down again
    (Hey, hey, hey!) 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
    Ooo-oo-ooo, ooo-oo-ooo

    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
    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
    (Hey, hey, hey!) 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

    What an amazing, timeless song. I was in the dentist chair listening to their radio when this song came on. Near the end I realized I wanted very much to know what it was, so I tried to remember some lyrics. The best I could do was "Fill me up buttercup". Of course that wasn't quite right, but fortunately "buttercup" is apparently a rare word in songwriting, and it was easy to find on that word alone.
