Steely Dan I Can't Function lyrics

I'm working hard from morning till night
My shoulder bend into the wheel
I get home, you start to run me down
How do you think it makes me feel

Your lashing turn, it hurts my soul
I start to think and I lose control
I'm not moving like I know I should
Or feeling like I'd like to feel

And I spend my days just fooling around
I can't function
Honey, when you run me down
Oh, darling don't you run me down

I gotta make a little fortune
So I can bring it on home to you
You're only hurting yourself my friend
Treating me the way you do

My hands are tied behind my back
I'm drinking dinner from a paper sack
Every day is the fourth of July
And I'm nothing but an April fool


Well, I spend my days just cruising around
I can't function
Honey, when you run me down
Oh, darling don't you run me down

I'm half a man with half a heart
I hear you laughing and I fall apart
I'd like to put it on the table
But I'm lost before I even start

You do me wrong
And it's bringing me down
My idle ways
Are the talk of the town

You make me feel like a do nothing clown
I can't function
Honey, when you run me down
Oh, darling don't you run me down
Oh, darling don't you run me down
