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
