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
