It was Wonder’s first number-one single since “Fingertips, Pt. 2” in 1963.
In “Superstition,” Stevie Wonder is warning against the dangers of believing in superstitions. He defines superstition as “believing in things you don’t understand”. The song mocks popular superstitions such as walking under a ladder, breaking a mirror, and the number 13, which are all considered unlucky. Wonder asserts that people who hold such beliefs are adding unnecessary suffering to their lives.

Lyrics
Very superstitious, writings on the wall,
Very superstitious, ladders ’bout to fall,
Thirteen-months-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, yeah, yeah
Very superstitious, nothin’ more to say,
Very superstitious, the devil’s on his way,
Thirteen-months-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
