Recorded spur of the moment after the decision to try and capitalise on the Xmas market. A fan favourite lyrically, renowned for supposedly having, musically, 'possibly the worst feel of all time'. According to Bill Pippen in 1995: "that's what we were going for; obviously."

lyrics

Don't break my heart...

Fell in with a girl, of this I'm not too proud
She was living in a nunnery
I was a simple-minded boy
She beckoned me in one fateful night
The girls of the alter heard about it
The clergy had a fright

Don't break my heart...
You're not supposed to fall in love
Sacrifice your life to me
Trouble's brewing in the church
I love you and I'm not proud!

Opened me up, to a whole new world
I was an innocent lad
Until she seduced me behind the pew
Sister Mary was a babe -
This I'm not frightened to admit
I had a riot and so did she
Next day she had to quit

[Chorus]
Don't break my heart...

Fell in love with a nun
Her loving was quite rough
The monks all found out afterwards
I tried to lie and bluff
I couldn't deny these claims
I'd fallen for her charms
Her podgy round figure and
Her supple loving arms
A woman hired to punish
With me had found true love
I wasn't a believer beforehand, but
Now I thank the Lord above

[Chorus]
