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)
