I Can Only Piss with the Cock I've Got

Used by someone when another person isn't satisfied with something they do, not due to a lack of effort but because they had limited resources to do something with.

Boss: "Jesus Barry how long is this going to take you? What am I paying you for?!"

Barry: "Come on boss, I can only piss with the cock I've got..."
