Señora, su conejito ya no le gusta el zacate, solo quiere chocolate. Qué animal tan picudito!

Broadside shows two women looking at a rabbit on a table. The ballad conveys, by means of metaphor, disdain of the upper class for living a life of luxury, represented by their attire and their diet. There is an additional ballad on the verso which expounds on the virtues of the National Bank.
