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)
