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
