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)
