about

The song is not inspired by bullfights although the title "Picador" might indicate it. it is a metaphor and relates to picar (to sting in Spanish) inspired by a special Andalusian form of humor also called "Guasa".
If you understand Spanish, you can read a poem written by Jesús Dominguez in the lyrics section which tells the story of the song:

lyrics

Guasa
El dardo dispuesto sobre la lengua
y el alfiler bien cargado en la mano
mientras redactamos nuestro tratado
Me disparas en mitad de la tregua.

Tu gracia se burla y se enmienda
En cualquier cosa que no haga daño
Mientras no clonen rencores los años
Más que unas bromas y otras leyendas

Disparando a traición unas sonrisas,
Venenosas y burlescas miradas
Ironizando la vida sin prisas

El veneno disfraza las palabras
El antídoto caído en la risa
He enfermado de algo llamado: guasa.
