You're a Builder Upper Songtext
When you want to
You are able to make me feel like Betty Grable
Then next minute you make me feel
I′m something from the zoo
First you warm up, then you're distant
Never many guys, oh, inconsistent
I′m a big-shot at half past one
A so-and-so by two,
Heaven forgive you for your sins
Keeping me on needles and pins
You're a builder-upper, a breaker-downer
A holder-outer, and I'm a giver-inner
Sad but true, I′m a sapper or two
Taking it from a big rover like you
Don′t know where I'm atter
I′m a this -er, I'm a that-er
A taker on the chin-er
My, my, my, what a weakie am I
To love you as I do
Just when I′m ready to sob You hand me a throb
And everything is hunky-dory
And that's my story
Open your arms and I′m a stooge for your charms
You're a builder-upper, a breaker-downer
A holder-outer and I'm a giver-inner
Sad but true, I love it I do
Being broken by a builder-upper like you
Just when I′m ready to sob
You hand me a throb
And everything is hunky-dory
And that′s my story
Open your arms and I'm a stooge for your charms
You′re a builder-upper, a breaker-downer
A holder-outer and I'm a giver-inner
Sad but true, I love it I do
Being broken by a builder-upper like you
Being broken by a builder-upper like you
Being broken by a builder-upper like you.
You are able to make me feel like Betty Grable
Then next minute you make me feel
I′m something from the zoo
First you warm up, then you're distant
Never many guys, oh, inconsistent
I′m a big-shot at half past one
A so-and-so by two,
Heaven forgive you for your sins
Keeping me on needles and pins
You're a builder-upper, a breaker-downer
A holder-outer, and I'm a giver-inner
Sad but true, I′m a sapper or two
Taking it from a big rover like you
Don′t know where I'm atter
I′m a this -er, I'm a that-er
A taker on the chin-er
My, my, my, what a weakie am I
To love you as I do
Just when I′m ready to sob You hand me a throb
And everything is hunky-dory
And that's my story
Open your arms and I′m a stooge for your charms
You're a builder-upper, a breaker-downer
A holder-outer and I'm a giver-inner
Sad but true, I love it I do
Being broken by a builder-upper like you
Just when I′m ready to sob
You hand me a throb
And everything is hunky-dory
And that′s my story
Open your arms and I'm a stooge for your charms
You′re a builder-upper, a breaker-downer
A holder-outer and I'm a giver-inner
Sad but true, I love it I do
Being broken by a builder-upper like you
Being broken by a builder-upper like you
Being broken by a builder-upper like you.
