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
