"Awful"
(Eric Erlandson / Courtney Love / Melissa Auf der Maur / Patty Schemel)

Swing low, sweet cherry, make it awful
It's your life, it's your party, it's so awful
Let's start a fire, let's have a riot, yeah, it's awful
It was punk, yeah, it was perfect; now it's awful

They know how to break all the girls like you
And they rob the souls of the girls like you
And they break the hearts of the girls

Swing low, cherry, cherry, yeah, it's awful
He's drunk, he tastes like candy, he's so beautiful
He's so deep, like dirty water, God, he's awful
You're lost, oh where's your daddy? It's so awful

And they royalty rate all the girls like you
And they sell it out to the girls like you
To incorporate little girls

Hey, run away with the light
Run away, it's divine
Let's run away, yeah, tonight
And we'll steal the light of the world

Swing low, sweet cherry, yeah, it's awful
You're ripe for the picking, it's so awful
You've got your youth, don't waste your money, yeah, its awful
I was punk, now I'm just stupid, I'm so awful

Oh, just shut up you're only 16

If the world is so wrong, yeah, you can break them all with one song
If the world is so wrong, yeah, you take it all with one song

Swing low, sweet cherry, make it awful
They bought it all, just build a new one, make it beautiful, oh yeah
