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
