The Very Best Of

Stevie Wonder - Superstition

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 ain’t the way

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 my song.

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

史蒂夫·汪达（Stevie Wonder）原名Steveland Judkins，1950年5月13日出生于美国密歇根州（Michigan）萨基脑（Sag-inaw）的一个黑人家庭。早产的Stevie刚出生就被送进婴儿暖箱，却因为暖箱供氧过量而永远告别了光明。Stevie Wonder可算是位“天才歌手”，他4岁学会吹口琴，5岁开始学钢琴，11岁就会演奏10多种乐器，他还生就一副好嗓子。1963年，他以一曲“Fingertips”夺取单曲排行冠军3周，震动了整个乐坛。
