*Why do you build me up (build me up)
Buttercup baby
((Ryoga and Ukyo sitting on a roof, slowly sliding closer together))
Just to let me down (let me down)
((Ryoga disappears in a blur of sparkles))
And mess me around
((Sad Ukyo on black background))
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 darling
You know that I have from the start
So build me up (Build me up)
((Background fades to Ucchan's. Ukyo sits by herself in the empty restaurant glancing at the phone forlornly. A photograph of Ryoga magically appears under the phone. Hearts have been drawn around his head in Gel Pen. Camera zooms in on the picture))
Buttercup don't break my heart
((Picture burst and blacks out the scene))
I'll be over at ten you told me time and again but you're late
((Ukyo is standing on a hill. The Furinkan High clock tower reads 10:23))
I wait around and then (badada)
I run to the door I can't take anymore It's not you
You let me down again (hey hey hey)
((Ukyo at Ucchan's, a sad look on her face. She looks up hopefully as the door opens. Strange couple walks in. Ukyo looks away dejectedly))
§ Baby baby, try to find (hey hey hey)
A little time and I'll make you happy
I'll be home, I'll be beside the phone
Waiting for you. Ooh (Ooh)
((Ryoga is in the woods. He glances at his watch. Close up on the watch as it transforms into Ukyo's. Ukyo looks at Ryoga's picture by the phone and sighs))
*
You were my toy but you could be the boy I adore
If you just let me know (badada)
((Ukyo is sitting on a pillow playing with a puppet of Ryoga on strings, she smiles at it))
Although we are through I'm attracted to you all the more
Why do I need you so? (Hey, hey, hey)
((Collage of Ukyo bashing, strangling, spatula-ing, and otherwise mistreating Ryoga in the shape of a heart))
