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)
