Two for joy

Three for a girl

Four for a boy

Five for silver

Six for gold

Seven for secret never to be told

Eight for a wish,

Nine for a kiss,

Ten for a bird you must not miss.

Eleven for health,

Twelve for wealth.

Thirteen beware, It’s the devil himself.

Fourteen, make your choice,

Fifteen, take your pick,

Sixteen, the sweetest,

Seventeen, your heart’s wish.

Eighteen for a letter,

Nineteen for better,

Twenty, the future, It’s now or never.”

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

It was as if
a ladder,

and each rung,
real to itself,
round or slat,
narrow or wide,
rope or metal –

and as you ascended,
real to yourself,
the rungs directly above
you solid,
directly beneath you, solid.

Scent of peeled orange
mixed with gasoline,
sound of hammers.

Farther below,
the rungs one by one vanished.

Farther above,
the rungs one by one
vanished.

And the side-rails’ lines
vanished, as into
a drawing by Brunelleschi.

Scent of peeled orange
and gasoline,
sound of hammers.

Grip now, night-dog, your barking:

this ladder in air,
invented by others, received by others.
