Rode Hard And Put Away Wet

She was standing there caught red handed      
Grasping at straws      
At the end of her rope      
Burning the midnight oil      
 
I was in the same boat      
Looking at turning over a new leaf
But I was caught between a rock and a hard place Ready to throw in the towel      
 
I approached her to break the ice      
She said it would cost an arm and a leg      
But I decided to bite the bullet      
So we hit the sack      
 
Thsts when she let the cat out of the bag      
And offered a piece of cake      
She said don't bite off more than you can chew      
I told her the ball is in your court      
 
When she hit the nail on the head      
I thought she would fly off the handle      
Because I unfortunately spilled the beans  
But she was under the weather      
 
At the end of the day      
She was rode hard and put away wet      
Weeks later before you know it      
I too was feeling out of sorts      
 
I got a taste of my own medicine      
But look on the bright side      
I didn't kick the bucket      
Just proves every cloud has a silver lining
