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)
