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)
