Finch robot (Java ) - should light up and say the colour when it is tapped

I wrote a code for the finch robot in Java that should light up and say the name of the colour when it is tapped but at the moment when I tap nothing happens. It works without the if statement but when I add it nothing happens. Does anyone know why? Thank you

import edu.cmu.ri.createlab.terk.robot.finch.Finch;

import java.awt.Color;

public class FinchUserInteraction {

// create finch object
static Finch myFinch = new Finch(); 

public static void main(String[] args) 
{

    //'BlueFinch' is the name of the blue Finch object 
    myFinch = new Finch();


    if (myFinch.isTapped() == true)
    {
        myFinch.setLED(Color.blue, 500);
        myFinch.saySomething("Blue");
    }
    else 
    {
        myFinch.setLED(Color.orange);
    }

    myFinch.quit(); 
    System.exit(0); 
        }
    }
