It's odd that I just noticed
It is the thirteenth day of May
The day is also Friday
It's unlucky some may say
Watch out for all the black cats
And those ladders off the rack
Don't step on any sidewalk joints
Or you may break you mother's back
It is superstitious Friday
When it's triskaidekaphobic too
It doesn't mean a thing to me
What does it mean to you?
Are you being extra are careful
To abide by all the rules
Does superstition guide your life
Like other superstitious fools
a dribbled number
triskaidekaphobic art ~
