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)
