Theme

A cover of the classic blues song by Willie Dixon. The lyrics ironically state that the speaker is *not* superstitious, but then proceeds to list several superstitions that they actively follow, implying that a woman's bad influence is bringing them misfortune.

Lyrics
I ain't superstitious, When a black cat crosses my path. And, I ain't superstitious, As I break the looking glass. Ain't afraid of no demons, Don't make me laugh! I ain't superstitious, Under the ladder I go. I ain't superstitious, It's all bulls**t, don't you know! Ain't afraid of the shadows, I like the dark anyway, and that's a fact! Superstitious [x 2]
