歌詞方面
填詞作曲由 Stevie Wonder
Very superstitious,
Writing’s on the wall,
Very superstitious,
Ladders bout’ to fall,
Thirteen month old baby,
Broke the lookin’ glass
Seven years of bad luck,
The good things in your past
When you believe in things
That you don’t understand,
Then you suffer,
Superstition aint the way
Hey
Very superstitious,
Wash your face and hands,
Rid me of the problem,
Do all that you can,
Keep me in a daydream,
Keep me goin’ strong,
You don’t wanna save me,
Sad is the soul
When you believe in things
That you don’t understand,
Then you suffer,
Superstition ain’t the way,
Yeh, yeh
Very superstitious,
Nothin’ more to say,
Very superstitious,
The devil’s on his way,
Thirteen month old baby,
Broke the lookin’ glass,
Seven years of bad luck,
Good things in your past
When you believe in things
That you don’t understand,
Then you suffer,
Superstition ain’t the way,
No, no, no
