Music video

 
Unlike Baja's previous music videos, this takes place mainly on a greenscreen.

Baja is seen with two different outfits throughout the video. Behind him is a repeating clip of footage of a club. Throughout the video there are video effects seemingly every few seconds. The source of the music video is currently unknown, but it is assumed that it is from a SuperTon Koktel VHS. The version present on the official YouTube channel is damaged and has the album cover in the beginning. It currently has about 51,000 views.[1]

Music and lyrics

The song has a blues-like motif with some live performances giving it a more jazz-like style. Like a majority of the songs on the album, it is a non-war song and is about living life to the fullest while you're still young.

Lyrics

Lyrics:

Večeras je tužan prijatelj moj
Ostavi te devojka, razmišljaš o njoj
Tvome srcu jadnom ipak ima leka
Može da te spasi samo diskoteka
Igraj, igraj, igraj, igraj

Igraj, igraj, igraj sad
Pevaj, luduj dok si mlad
Kad ostariš nećeš moći
Zato luduj svake noći

Srce jako udara, ritam nije loš
Nemoj da se nervira, biće žena još
Đido moj tebra, pravićemo lom
Mojne da se nerviraš, ne tuguj za njom
Igraj, igraj, igraj, igraj

Igraj, igra, igraj sad
Pevaj, luduj dok si mlad
Kad ostariš nećeš moći
Zato luduj svake noći

Sa staroga zida grafit oči bode
Zašto ljudi umiru i zašto se rode
Život kratko traje, uzmi šta ti daje
Dok si mlad i lep, tvoj je ceo svet
Igraj, igraj, igraj, igraj

Igraj, igra, igraj sad
Pevaj, luduj dok si mlad
Kad ostariš nećeš moći
Zato luduj svake noći
