Who knows what Nena was really singing about here and what does it have to do with Captain Kirk?

Thank you Rosie.  He is doing well.  You are right about the song.  It represents a protest to nuclear weapons.  Here is a link to a discussion.

an activist rally and they all released these red balloons into the sky, I think it was anti-nuclear and it was supposed to represent doing away with the weapons. Not EXACTLY sure, if you want I'll google it for you, I'm a good googler, shouldn't be hard.

How's your son?
