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)

 This Year And  Try To  Snatch Some Beers
