Description
Childhood always shines brighter in our memories than it actually was: playing until dark, dreaming of wonderful flights, and believing that only good things lie ahead. But the balloon flies away, and it turns out that some illusions have disappeared with it. Losses remain on the road, and in our hands we are left with only strange symbols, like banana peels that are so easy to slip on.
In the song, sadness and humor live side by side, like two old neighbors. You can smile even in difficult moments, because life itself is a cocktail of melancholy and absurdity. And in this combination there is a special honesty: a little absurd, a little painful, but completely real.

Lyrics and translation
Original
Çocukken her şey güzeldi.
Oyunlar oynarken neşeliydik.
Ne hayallerimiz vardı halbuki.
Her biri tek tek içine verdi.
Neler düşlemiştik oysa biz.
Pepe'nin balonunda uçarken.
Üzüntü ve muz kabuğu. Üzüntü ve muz kabuğu.
O sevimli maymunun söylediği gibi.
Üzüntü ve muz kabuğu.
Üzüntü ve muz kabuğu.
Şu tuhaf hayatın bir özeti sanki.
Yollarda kayıplar verdik.
Gidenler vardı bir de bizi sevenler.
Yalnızlık ömür boyu demiş abiler.
İnanmak zor gelse de biraz öyle.
Moralimiz bozulmuş inceden.
Pepe'nin balonundan düşerken.
Üzüntü ve muz kabuğu.
Üzüntü ve muz kabuğu.
O sevimli maymunun söylediği gibi.
Üzüntü ve muz kabuğu.
Üzüntü ve muz kabuğu.
Şu tuhaf hayatın bir özeti sanki.
Üzüntü ve muz kabuğu. Üzüntü ve muz kabuğu.
O sevimli maymunun söylediği gibi.
Üzüntü ve muz kabuğu.
Üzüntü ve muz kabuğu.
Şu tuhaf hayatın bir özeti sanki.
Üzüntü ve muz kabuğu. Üzüntü ve muz kabuğu. Üzüntü ve muz kabuğu.
Şu tuhaf hayatın bir özeti sanki.
English translation
When I was a child, everything was beautiful.
We were cheerful while playing games.
What dreams we had, though.
He gave it to each of them one by one.
What did we dream of?
While flying in Pepe's balloon.
Sadness and banana peel. Sadness and banana peel.
Just like that cute monkey said.
Sadness and banana peel.
Sadness and banana peel.
It's like a summary of this strange life.
We suffered losses on the roads.
There were those who left and those who loved us.
Loneliness is lifelong, brothers said.
Although it may be hard to believe, it is somewhat true.
Our morale is slightly lowered.
While falling from Pepe's balloon.
Sadness and banana peel.
Sadness and banana peel.
Just like that cute monkey said.
Sadness and banana peel.
Sadness and banana peel.
It's like a summary of this strange life.
Sadness and banana peel. Sadness and banana peel.
Just like that cute monkey said.
Sadness and banana peel.
Sadness and banana peel.
It's like a summary of this strange life.
Sadness and banana peel. Sadness and banana peel. Sadness and banana peel.
It's like a summary of this strange life.
