The album featured the songs such as "Ratnik paorskog srca" which tells of a peasant who returns from World War I and who "wasn't made to be a soldier", "Za sve je kriv Toma Sojer" which tells of three boys which ran away from home influenced by The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, "Boža zvani Pub" which tells of a legendary gambler nicknamed Pub (Jack), romantic ballad "Lepa protina kći" ("Beautiful Priest's Daughter"), social poem "Za treću smenu" ("For the Third Shift") and existential ballad "Na pola puta" ("Halfway Point").

All the aforementioned songs went on to become his and Balašević's signature pieces, but among them (especially at the time) was another: the track "Pesma o jednom petlu", which tells a story of an old man's younger days in the farm-rich area of Vojvodina when he had a pet rooster.

The rooster is widely assumed to be a metaphor for his male sexual organ for which female birds tend to go crazy.

The lyrics go on to list different kinds of female birds which in turn depict stereotypical characteristics of women in Serbian slang.

The refrain line "Princip je isti, sve su ostalo nijanse" ("The principle is same, everything else are details") is referring to the way of courting the opposite sex.
