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)
