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)
