Build Me Up - Huey Lewis & The News

Don’t try to tell me why

That you just can’t get enough of me

So fine, so unkind

And I can tell that you’re using me

You’re just using me

You know what you do to me

You just build me up

And then you let me down

You make me feel like a man

And treat me like a clown

You’re so strong but you’re so wrong

I Should’ve known it all along

So nice, like free advice

I got this feeling, I’ll be paying price

Paying price, baby

I’ll be paying for the rest of my life

That ain’t nice

You just build me up

And then you act so cool

You make me feel like a man

And treat me like a fool

You got me hangin' on a string

Up and down I go

You got me actin' like a toy

You left me no control, yeah

Well, well, well, I can’t tell

You got me fishing in a wishin' well

How long can this go on

I’m getting tired of the same old song

Tired of the song, baby

It’s been going on much too long

Just the same old song

You just build me up

And then you let me down

You make me feel like a man

And treat me like I can’t be that

You just build me up

And then you act so cool

You make me feel like I can

And treat me like a fool

No, no, dear, don’t you build me up, baby

Don’t you do it, don’t you build me up

Hey, hey, don’t you build me up
