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)
