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
