"I don't think that I've
got the stomach
To stomach calling
you today"

--Saves the Day's 'See You'

And we're betting that this clever emo fella doesn't have the eyes to eye you, the hands to handle you ... or even the mouth to mouth your name. Oh, the humanity!

what about "why do i find it hard to write the next line?" by maybe it was Tears for Fears? The song goes on something like "you know where i can be found". from the early 90's maybe. anyone remember?

Saves The Day? Their lyrics were awesome. I didn't like Cars & Calories though.

Fiddy's comparison of loving someone like a fat kid loves cake makes sense to me. Of course, now I want cake. Ummmm...cake. Proud to stomach some cake.

Every lyric on this list sucks,therefore it is a great list.Stop whining that "this shuldnt b on hurr, u jus dont undurstamd them lke i du"No, you don't understand them, you're too stupid.Step out of the mainstream, and think for yourself.

I think that emo music gets a bad rap. And great bands like Coheed and Cambria get a bad rap for being classified as emo, when they are anything but!!!!!! All that being said, I do not think this lyric is so bad. A agree with Aaron. He is using it as a verb and a noun. I actually think it is quite clever.

the lyric is terrible, and just because he uses two parts of speech with the same word, this is not "wordplay". This is juvenile. At worst it is excessively trite - even for emo. At worst it needs to be referred to the department of redundancy department.

This line is not a play on words. At all. If you think this is a decent play on words, you really need to listen to a decent rap song, because honestly, even wack-ass rappers like soulja boy come up with better lyrics than that. If you don't believe me, listen to any Bun B song.

Dude, the author KNOWS WHAT TO STOMACH SOMETHING MEANS. That is NOT the issue.

It just sounds repetitive and dumb. I don't think I have the stomach / to stomach calling you, wtf?

All you had to say was that I don't think I have the stomach to call you today. It's obvious filler and crap. Song belongs up here.
