There's loads of references to the term in the song.

And nothing's all I ever get

There's always something going wrong

It’s a never ending attack
Everything’s a lie, and that’s a fact


Basically it means life can turn to crap and there's absolutley nothing you can do about it.

If you buy something that doesn't work, or does work but breaks all the time, it is called a "lemon". My car is a lemon, out of all of that particular make of car, mine is the one that blows up and breaks regularly.

Due to consumer preotection, if you buy something that doesn't work or it breaks, you can get your money back.

Hence, "Life is a lemon, and I want my money back".

Hope that helps a bit.
