Jesmo'l sami is the second single of the album "Slušaj Mater" by Edo Maajka.

The video begins with Đuro (the guest star) interviewing a UFO witness. He stops the interview on the request of the witness. Then we see Edo in a military uniform and he starts with a small intro to the song which goes :"It was after dark and the clocks stopped, on my doors Mulder and Scully knocked, they say: we are looking for an alien, he has a big head, I said I have one in my pants but he is sleeping, small joke"

He starts out by describing them compared to us and then their believes "do they have long hair, do they wear eye shadow, do they believe in a God"

He goes on to say what their lives are like compared to our lives, socially and politically. Examples are: Edo says in the song :"do they have police, if so, do they mess with them", and "do they do grafits, or are their streets clean" and "do they love political opposition and how do they elect officials", "do they fight over the color of their skin".He finishes with rapping "can you take me with you like a refugee".

Throughput the video, it cuts back from the interviewer who is on a strange planet (supposedly Mars) to Edo in his uniform rapping, then at the end the interviewer photographs Elvis and Bruce Lee on the planet, then he sees someone sitting in a straight jacket on the planet he comes over and then it cuts to Edo Maajka standing then giving the peace sign as the picture fades away.

The Chorus:

  • Give us back Elvis (Presley), Hase and Bruce Lee
  • and take silicones, atomic warfare and the CIA
