Immortality

There's been a thousand yous
There's only been one me
From the times of Columbus
To the dawn of history
I've seen the Panama Canal
And the splendor of Mt. Fuji
I've been to every country
Seen every type of human being
If you could only know
The things that I have seen
I helped build the Eiffel Tower
And rode the first boat
I was even present when they first discovered gold
I've lived forever
and others are dead
I won't say it again,
It's already been said
You can't kill me
I'm already dead
