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) |
|

|
John Lee Supertaster |
|
Tastes more than we know |
|
Everything has a flavor |
|
Some flavors must go |
