I was on my way to the grocery store

When I saw a man standing at my back door

He was tall and dark, I'd never seen him before

He was saying something that I could not ignore

He said, "Hey, let me in", with a big, big grin

"I've got something to say, so lady, let's begin"

So he sat me down and looked me straight in the eye

He said, "I know something about you that you can't deny

If you see a black cat, you gonna cover your eyes

You see a crack in the road, you gonna step to the side"

You've got hidden superstition

You've got hidden superstition

So I looked at this man with a pair of guilty eyes

He knew what I knew, he saw through my disguise

There was no use in denying but I thought I might give it a try

So I said, "Hey, tell me more, Mr. Man, if you think you're so wise"

He said, "Hey little miss, I don't mean no harm"

Then he got a little closer as he touched my arm

He said, "I've watched you doing your thing for days on end

And I've sent every vibe that I know how to send

I swear I'm not a creep and I don't mean to offend

But I though you might like to be my voodoo friend"

'Cause I got hidden superstition

I got hidden superstition
