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
