    BaNaNaBaNaNa・・・

    私ってこう見えても　結構大人だよ
    着痩せするタイプだけど　意外にグラマーだし・・・
    アダルトな化粧するし　恋も中級者くらい・・・Yeah!

    まだまだ　お子ちゃまだわ　
    見栄を張ってるようじゃ　BABY
    家に帰りなさい

    となりのバナナは青すぎる
    秘密がない友達はつまらない
    アレしてコレして　熟れてゆく
    おいしいバナナになれますように・・・V!

    私のような人を大人って言うんだよ
    アメリカの大統領の名前も知っているし
    “流石”って漢字とか　“年金問題”も気になるし・・・Yeah!

    ホラー映画で泣いたり　
    お寿司のワサビ抜きは　BABY
    背伸びはやめなさい

    となりのバナナはむきにくい
    守っているその皮が硬すぎる
    好奇心だけで甘くなる
    おいしいバナナになれますように・・・Yes!

    「この間、暇でさ、朝刊読んだの。
    これって、大人じゃない？」
    「うなぎの皮、食べられる人って、大人だよね？」

    となりのバナナはむきにくい
    守っているその皮が硬すぎる
    私たちだって　いつの日か
    おいしいバナナに・・・
    となりのバナナは青すぎる
    秘密がない友達はつまらない
    アレしてコレして　熟れてゆく
    2人のバナナを食べてください・・・V!

english translation

    BaNaNaBaNaNa...

    Even though I look like this, I’m really an awesome woman
    I’m the type who looks thin in clothes, but surprisingly I’m glamorous…
    I wear adult make up, and I’m a bit experienced in love…Yeah!

    You’re not ready yet
    You’re still like a child putting on a show
    Baby, go back home

    The banana next door is too unripe
    A friend without secrets is boring
    If you do this and that, you’ll mature
    In order to become a tasty banana…V!

    “Be an adult like me,” I say
    I even know the name of America’s President
    The kanji for “clever” and “pension problem” are worrisome for you…Yeah!

    Check it out – you cry at the movies
    Even without wasabi for sushi
    Baby, stop making yourself big

    The banana next door is too hard to peel
    The skin you’re protecting is too tough
    With just a bit of curiosity, you’ll turn sweet
    In order to become a tasty banana…Yeah!

    “Now, with this free time, I read the morning newspaper.
    Aren’t I an adult?”
    “People who can eat eel skin – aren’t they adults?”

    The banana next door is too hard to peel
    The skin you’re protecting is too tough
    With just a bit of curiosity, you’ll turn sweet
    In order to become a tasty banana…
    The banana next door is too unripe
    A friend without secrets is boring
    If you do this and that, you’ll mature
    In order to become a tasty banana…V!
