Lyrics

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
