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)
