She believes that she can't talk to me on Tuesdays 'Cause her fortune teller tells her so Not to mention the stars and the tarot cards And the psychic on the radio She believes that I can't take her out on Friday Cause of something in her horoscope She saw it in the tea leaves and it was on the 13th And so she just had to say no I said oh well there'll be another day and she said knock wood I said it's really okay and she said knock wood Then I took her to my place And you should have see the fear on her superstitious face When I said come on in under the ladder in the doorway Thirteen steps will get you straight to the bed Never mind my black cat The one who walked across your path He's just messing with your superstitious head Your super superstitious head She said you're crazy takin' chances like that She said you're crazy don't you know what could happen You're crazy takin' chances like that She said you're crazy crazy She believes I'm unlucky cause I broke a mirror
And the curse takes seven years to pa** And in my logical mind I'm thinking that's some hard time For breaking a cheap piece of gla** She believes in the power of her prayers' protection And she's hoping she can help me too But I'm increasing my odds of pissing off all the gods And then there's not much she can do I smiled and said I'll keep my fingers crossed And she said that's good maybe you're just a little lost And I said knock wood and as I walked her to the door I took the opportunity to freak her out some more So I said watch your step under the ladder in the doorway Thirteen floors down to the lobby I said Never mind that full moon Never listen to the voice of doom They're just messin' with your superstitous head Your super duperstitous head And she said you're crazy takin' chances like that She said you're crazy don't you know what could happen You're crazy takin' chances like that She said you're crazy crazy
