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
