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)
