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)
