Julie Andrews Sings: You’re A Builder-Upper - Julie Andrews

When you want to

You are able to make me feel that I’m Clark Gable

Then next minute you make me feel

I’m something from the zoo

First you warm up, then you’re distant

Never knew a girl so 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 meaner than him

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 just a this-er, then 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

Sad but true, I love it I do

Being broken by a builder-upper like you
