Tasty Tune - John Lee Supertaster

Sorry folks, experiencing technical difficulties with the song link in the previous post. The song is from They Might Be Giant's all ages album, "No!". (small clip of the song is available on this website). This song is about a superhero with what I think is a fantastic superpower. Hope to get the link working soon, but in the meantime, here are the lyrics:

John Lee Supertaster
Nothing tastes the same to a Supertaster!
When he tastes a pear it's like a hundred pears!
He's got superpowers!
He is a Supertaster!
Every flavor 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 'cause he's a Supertaster!
Though he looks like a man he is a Supertaster!
Can't drink coffee or beer 'cause he's a Supertaster!
He loves ice cream and pie!
He is a Supertaster!
John Lee Supertaster tastes more than we know
Everything has a flavor some flavors must go
