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)
