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)
