Taste
by Vinedale Elementary songwriting workshop
Fast boogie rhythm, any melody will do
Brussels sprouts are bitter, I don’t like the taste
I gave them to the sitter so they won’t go to waste
The babysitter said I have to go to bed
And when I was in bed my taste buds said:
(chorus) In my mouth I got five flavors
I can chew my food and savor
Bitter, sour, salty, umami or sweet
My taste buds tell me what’s good to eat
Candy and waffles and honey are sweet
I eat a lot of sugar, get a beat in my feet
The beat in my feet makes me dance all night
And then I go to bed and I turn off the light
(repeat chorus)
