Sabela's rendition of 'El Cuarto de Tula' is a vibrant and energetic song that tells a story filled with cultural references and lively imagery. The song narrates an incident in a neighborhood where a fire breaks out in Tula's room because she fell asleep without extinguishing a candle. The repeated lines about the fire brigade rushing to the scene with their bells and sirens add a sense of urgency and chaos to the narrative.

The phrase 'Al cuarto de Tula, le cogió candela' (Tula's room caught fire) is central to the song, emphasizing the cause of the commotion.
