Fermi Paradox

In 1950, at Los Alamos, a scientist was talking with his friends
 And the conversation had them all fully engrossed
 About this universe that almost has no ends
 And as they were all about to return to their study
 Enrico suddenly shouted "Where is everybody?"
 And he worked out a few simple calculations
 That indicated we should have been visited thousands of times
 At least, based on his estimations
 (chrous)
 Oh, that's the Fermi Paradox
 If they're out there, why don't we hear 'em talk?
 The galaxy just keeps on spinnin'
 With four hundred billion stars in it
 And I just can't believe that we could be unique
 When there's so much space in this galaxy
 Oh, I want Pandora's Box
 To be open, but instead we're stuck in Fermi's Paradox
 There are dozens of ways this paradox might be resolved
 And you probably can think of some yourself
 Maybe civilizations very rarely evolves
 Or maybe god sent them all to hell
 Or maybe advanced technology leads to its own destruction
 Or maybe species lose interest in reproduction
 Or maybe they're just afraid of what we'll do when we find out
 So, they're hiding until we grow a bit and don't have the same tendency to frequently freak out
 (second chorus)
 Oh, that's the Fermi Paradox
 If they're out there, why don't they talk?
 The galaxy just keeps on spinnin'
 With four hundred billion stars in it
 And I just can't believe that we could be unique
 When there's so much space in this galaxy
 Oh, I want Pandora's Box
 To be open, but instead we're stuck in Fermi's Paradox
 Oh, the question of whether there is more life out there
 As far as I'm concerned, is moot
 But it appears that the aliens do not use Foursquare
 And, no, I'm not trying to be cute
 Because the way that we listen is defined by our ears
 And the time that we've been listening just a couple dozen years
 We'll be lucky when we see them if we notice them at all
 Our cosmic phone could be ringing off the hook right now, and we're just not answering the call
 (second chorus)
 Oh, yeah, we're stuck in Fermi's Paradox
 Oh, no, we're stuck in Fermi's Paradox
 Oh, no, we're stuck in Fermi's Paradox
