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)
