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)
