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)
