John Lee Supertaster Lyrics

John Lee Supertaster lyrics

When I was 39 years old, I heard a story

I found out that they're people walking among us who have superpowers

These people are called Supertasters

To a Supertaster, bitter fruits taste far more bitter

And sweets far more sweet

Then, just a few months ago, I had the chance to meet a real live Supertaster
named John Lee

And this is his true story



Nothing tastes the same

(Nothing tastes the same)

To a Supertaster

  (Supertaster)

When he tastes a pear

(Tastes a pear)

It's like a hundred pears

  (It's like a million pears)



He's got superpowers

(Superpowers)

He is a Supertaster

(Supertaster)

Every flavor explodes

(Explodes and explodes)

Explodes and explodes



John Lee Supertaster

Tastes more than we do

Everything has a flavor

Some flavors are too much



Can't shut his mouth

(Can't shut his mouth)

'Cause he's a Supertaster

(Supertaster)

Though he looks like a man

(Talks like a man)

He is a Supertaster

(Supertaster)



Can't drink coffee or beer

(Coffee or beer)

'Cause he's a Supertaster

(Supertaster)

Loves ice-cream and pie

(Ice-cream and pie)

He is a Supertaster



John Lee Supertaster

Tastes more than we know

Everything has a flavor

Some flavors must go
