“Awful” is the twelfth single, and also third EP, by American alternative rock band Hole, from their third studio album Celebrity Skin. Released in April 1999 by Geffen Records as a CD single, the song’s lyrics explore how the media and modern pop culture corrupt young girls and how they should rebel against this. The line “swing low, sweet cherry” in the song is an allusion to the African American spiritual hymn, “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot”. Read on...

Song lines: ♪ Oh, just shut up you're only 16 ... Yeah it's awful ... If the world is so wrong
