squeezed like a lemon

And being told of my financial state, I grit my teeth poor as a rotting board, I feel like a lemon squeezed, I dont feel great , Please dont sink my ship while I am aboard.; And news like this,my guts squirt out lemon juice, I am being squeezed dry -feel I want to die , Financially speaking I need a truce, A lemon squeezed no taste I want to cry, Life with no zest is not life its abuse, I play by your rule book most of the time, A financial respite would make things right My life would be like sweet wine and sunshine,, I ask for little we need not have to fight. Life is a quacking duck ,news rules some luck, Your help pleases me and I never get stuck.
