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)
