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)

 I'M Gonna  Go  Smoke My  Third Cigarette 
 This Year And  Try To  Snatch Some Beers
