Lyrics

Ver y su per sti tious,

writ ing’s on the wall.

Ver y su per sti tious,

The lad der’s ’bout to fall.

Keep me in a day dream.

Keep me go in’ strong.

You don’t wan na save me.

The Sad things is my song.

When you be lieve in things that you don’t un der stand then you suf fer.

(CN.C.)Su per sti tion ain’t the way.

Ooh, ver y su per sti tious.

Wash your face and hands.

Rid me of the prob lems.

The Do all that you can.

Thir teen month old ba by

broke the look ing glass.

Sev en years of bad luck.

The good things in your past.

When you be lieve in things that you don’t un der stand then you suf fer.

(CN.C.)Su per sti tion ain’t the way.

Ooh, ver y su per sti

Ver y su per sti Su per sti tion ain’t the way.

Superstition by Stevie Wonder — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “Superstition” by Stevie Wonder in our color-coded kid songbook view — every note is colored by pitch (red C, orange D, yellow E, green F, blue G, purple A, pink B) and the lyrics sit directly under each note, so children can sing along while they play. The song is in the key of Ab at 115 BPM, a slightly more challenging arrangement — practice each phrase slowly first.

Tips for parents & teachers

  • Start at 50% tempo using the BPM control. Speed up only when your child can play through without stopping.
  • Turn on the metronome from the top bar to build steady rhythm.
  • Use the segmented OFF / C / 1 button to toggle note labels on the staff and keys — kids learn note names faster with letters showing.
  • Tap a measure number on the timeline to jump to a specific section for repeat practice.
