There's a chance for everybody
So I took my chance on loving you (no)
Just no one man can make you happy
You wanna have your cake and eat it too (ho)
You won't give up your Buttercup
You say you love too but one is givin' up
'Cause he can't stay
You won't give up your Buttercup
You're plenty for one, but two you're not enough
So I can't stay (oh)
Rump pump pa, pumpah pah dahbah
I've a right to my opinion
Feeling we'd be better, off as friends (ho)
'Cause you can make no one man happy
When you're spreading yourself much too thin (ho)
You won't give up your Buttercup
You say you love too but one is givin' up
'Cause he can't stay (yeah, yeah)
You won't give up your Buttercup
You're plenty for one, but two you're not enough
So I can't stay (oh)
Rump pump pa, pumpah pah dahbah
There's a chance for even losers
'Cause I will find a love that's pure someday (ho)
You will be the one who's bluer
Because your game of love, no one will play
You won't give up your Buttercup
You say you love too but one is givin' up
'Cause he can't stay (stay, ho)
You won't give up your Buttercup
You're plenty for one, but two you're not enough
So I can't stay (oh)
Rump pump pa, pumpah pah dahbah
You won't give up your Buttercup
You say you love too but one is givin' up
'Cause he can't stay (stay, ho)
You won't give up your Buttercup
You're plenty for one, but two you're not enough
So I can't stay, stay (oh)
Rump pump pa, pumpah pah dahbah
(Instrumental break)
Rump pump pa, pumpah pah dahbah
So I took my chance on loving you (no)
Just no one man can make you happy
You wanna have your cake and eat it too (ho)
You won't give up your Buttercup
You say you love too but one is givin' up
'Cause he can't stay
You won't give up your Buttercup
You're plenty for one, but two you're not enough
