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)
