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)
