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)

 I'M Gonna  Go Smoke  My  Third Cigarette 
 This Year And Try  To Snatch  Some Beers
