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)
