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)
