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)
