In numerous interviews, he stated that the song was inspired by a mass exodus of young adults leaving Croatia for better opportunities in foreign countries.{{Cite web |last=Adams |first=William Lee |date=6 January 2024 |title=A heavy heart and anxiety attacks: Baby Lasagna says his Dora song "Rim Tim Tagi Dim" was inspired by young people leaving Croatia |url=https://wiwibloggs.com/2024/01/06/baby-lasagna-says-his-dora-song-rim-tim-tagi-dim-was-inspired-by-young-people-leaving-croatia/278972/ |access-date=25 February 2024 |website=Wiwibloggs |language=en-US |archive-date=22 January 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240122104147/https://wiwibloggs.com/2024/01/06/baby-lasagna-says-his-dora-song-rim-tim-tagi-dim-was-inspired-by-young-people-leaving-croatia/278972/ |url-status=live }} To Purišić, the song is a "humorous and light hearted approach" to the issue.{{Cite web |date=10 January 2024 |title=CROATIA: Baby Lasagna exclusively at OGAE Greece! |url=https://ogaegreece.com/croatia-baby-lasagna-exclusively-at-ogae-greece/ |access-date=25 February 2024 |website=OGAE Greece |archive-date=13 March 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240313182149/https://ogaegreece.com/croatia-baby-lasagna-exclusively-at-ogae-greece/ |url-status=live }} The song itself tells a story of a young, rural man who leaves his village for a better life in a foreign country; although excited, he is still wracked by anxiety over moving. Purišić was also inspired by his own anxiety. In the song lyrics, 'rim tim tagi dim' serves as the name of a fictional folk dance of the narrator's native village.{{cite web |url=https://showbuzz.dnevnik.hr/celebrity/ekskluzivni-razgovor-s-baby-lasagnom-nakon-pobjede-na-dori---830739.html |first=Sanja |last=Jurković |author2=J.
