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
