lyrics

Let's be sincere in our questions, honest in our answers
Open minded and respectful in our manners
At the adult table take a seat

People deserve respect, they deserve dignity
Because they're humans, not because of their beliefs
So when you're at the table, with adults talkin'
No belief is sacred no subject is off topic

You may not believe it
But here adults can share ideas without getting heated
Cause if you yell, call names, or use threats
Go back to the kid's table, where you get spoon fed

We welcome questioning, we think wonder's good
Seek first to understand, then be understood
You want to hang with us, come sit and listen
But understand no belief's immune to criticism

Whether religion, philosophy, or politics
At the adult table you can discuss all of it
But if you like to bully or get upset and pissed
You shall be seated with the rest of the kids

Let's be sincere in our questions, honest in our answers
Open minded and respectful in our manners
At the adult table take a seat
Come have a conversation with me

You can raise your voice or you can raise your words
You can talk over others or you can take your turn
You can throw a fit or spit insults
Or you can, grow up and come and join the adults

There's no need for you to ridicule
Unless you're immature and haven't graduated middle school
So what you gonna choose?
To dive deep into topics, or belly flop in the kiddie pool?

If you came to mock and shame or play the Gotcha game
I got news for you this is not the place
For that type of behavior
If you can't keep your cool then you need to move to the kid's table

Cause where we sit, there's no heated debate
Only grown ups who can peacefully engage
So if you're with non-confrontation conversation
We adults are waitin'

Let's be sincere in our questions, honest in our answers
Open minded and respectful in our manners
At the adult table take a seat
Come have a conversation with me
