Story about this misheard lyric by: SC The way Paul slurs the bridge of this song, I could never make sense of most of it. The last line, though, seemed to come through loud and clear, and I always wondered why he would toss that word into an otherwise inoffensive pop song for no apparent reason. Now that I've looked up the lyrics, all has been made clear. I'm just glad I never tried to sing my version in front of anyone. |

Repetitive Lyrics:
"Live And Let Die"
The Repetitive Lyrics: But if this ever changing world in which we live in
Makes you give in... Why They're Repetitive: 'In which we live' or 'We live in' not 'In which we live in'
Submitted by: Pete Moran
| "Live And Let Die"
The Repetitive Lyrics: If this ever changing world in which we live in
Why They're Repetitive: Not only is the second 'in' redundant, the whole phrase 'in which we live' is unnecessary. Obviously, we live in this world. 'If this ever changing world...makes you give in and cry...' would be the grammatically economic way of expressing his thought. Using some half-notes and whole notes with the shorter phrase could have accomplished this. But then again, Paul can't read music, can he?
