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)
