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)
