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
