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)

 This Year And Try To Snatch  Some  Beers
