Fermi'S Paradox      
                          
                                          
 On  Earth  (The Planet  Where I  Live) A 
 Lot  Of Us  Have  Antennas On Our Houses 
 Or  Balconies,  We   Have  Built   Large 
 Antennas  For  Larger Bandwith, We  Have 
     Build Specialized Antennaes For      
   Specific Wavelengths (And Sent Them    
 Into Orbit),  We'Ve  Built Large As Fuck 
              Antenna Arrays              
 We'Ve Virtually  Built An Antenna With A 
         Dish As Large As Earth.          
                                          
 We'Ve Learned About Our Position  In The 
      Solar System, Our Solar Systems     
 Placement   In  The  Galaxy,   And   Our 
 Galaxys Placement In The  Local Cluster, 
 And  Our Local Clusters  Place  In The 
          Grand Scheme Of Things          
                                          
 And  We'Re  Moving  Around  The  Sun  At 
 Velocity And The Suns Moving Around  The 
 Center Of  The  Galaxy  At  Velocity And 
 The  Galaxy  Is  Moving Toward Andromeda 
    And We'Re Both Moving Anticlockwise   
 Around The  Galaxy.  And We As A Species 
 Have Learned To Take All That In Account 
                                          
 And Despite  All This, Despite  All  Our 
   (Cliche) Beaming Of Fucking Stellar    
 Radio Programmes  Out In  Fucking  Space 
 At  The Speed Of  Light  (Light  Is  Our 
 Medium! Goodspeed You, Black Emperor!),  
      Despite Ghosts Helping And The      
     Collective Consciousness Lowpass     
   Filtering, Despite Our Very Obvious    
 Beaming  Of  All  Our  Secrets  In Every 
          Direction Known To Us,          
                                          
 No       One       Has       Answered

             So Why Is That?              
                                          
 Most  Opponents  To Intelligent Life  In 
 The Universe Say  It'S  Because You Need 
 A Class  One-Or-The-Other Star  And  The 
 Planet  Needs  To  Be  At  A  See-And-So 
 Distance Away From The  Star (Like There 
           Has To Be A Planet!)           
                                          
 But  Really   Isn'T  That   Keeping  The 
      Definition Of Life Really Lax?      
                                          
 I Think Everyone Agrees That We  Have No 
 Idea What We'Re Doing  (And It  Probably 
                  Shows)
