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)
