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)
