The song "La Rana y El Príncipe" by Joan Manuel Serrat tells the story of a prince who appears to be perfect and lives in a palace, capturing the attention of the media. However, the prince has a tendency to break spells with his kisses after having a few drinks, which often causes him trouble. One day, he sees a reflection that escaped from the moon and discovers a common frog sitting on a lily pad. The prince immediately recognizes her. Meanwhile, the frog lives a simple life, unaware of her true identity, catching insects without worrying about her future. One day, as the frog listens to a male frog croaking, she becomes entranced. But in a moment of betrayal, the male frog captures her, making her his prisoner. In a surprising turn of events, the prince, now transformed into a frog, kisses her under the starlight, but instead of reversing the spell, he too becomes a frog. The prince finds it difficult to adapt to the life of a frog and is unable to re-enter the palace due to his new form. The song narrates how now there is one less prince in the garden and one more frog. Overall, the song speaks about appearances and how things may not always turn out as expected. It reflects on the irony and unexpected consequences that can arise from seemingly magical situations.
