The Lyrics
I spilled the salt—I’m screwed!
It’s bad-luck time.
And I stepped upon a crack too.
No denyin’
when I was spyin’
in the mirror, it cracked—
later, on the ground,
in front walked a black cat. . .
I walked under a later, not ’round.
I spilled the salt—bad ju-
ju will be mine,
all mine.
The crack too,
mirror too,
black cat too,
ladder too.
So what now?!
I go up where
there’s a floor 13.
I’m doomed, I vow.
So hear me:
If salt is spilled, you’re screwed. . .
out of my mind.
It’s bad-luck time.
And I stepped upon a crack too.
No denyin’
when I was spyin’
in the mirror, it cracked—
later, on the ground,
in front walked a black cat. . .
I walked under a later, not ’round.
I spilled the salt—bad ju-
ju will be mine,
all mine.
The crack too,
mirror too,
black cat too,
ladder too.
So what now?!
I go up where
there’s a floor 13.
I’m doomed, I vow.
So hear me:
If salt is spilled, you’re screwed. . .
out of my mind.

I consider cats of any color to be good luck. I fed a black cat the other day, now it crosses my path all the time.
