Araceli

Araceli was the fairest of them all
She was born in the month of Gemini.
To every man who saw her befell
Cupid's curse.
Singing oh my, oh my, oh my.

Araceli only had eyes for one
and she lived for her love day and night.
One day he became ill, so
she called on the doctor.
Singing oh my, oh my, oh my.

When Araceli's perfect face he
beheld well the doctor was
stricken with awe.
He prayed to Gods that her husband
might die and upon Mount Olympus
they conspired.
When Araceli had discovered the truth,
that her beauty had damned her true
love's life, she jumped into the Ladan River
to absolve her adulterous crime.

When she arrived at Hades' door,
the God of thunder was waiting.
Zeus said "You're the one I've
been longing for."
and she said "You're the one I've
been hating!"
Araceli shouted " I've had enough!
Never once, no not once have I
defied you! I lived as you command,
now I'm taking Hades' hand."
Singing oh good-bye, good-bye.
