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)

 This Year And Try  To  Snatch Some Beers
