Nonsensical Lyrics:

"Live and Let Die"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
But if this ever-changing world in which we live in
Why They're Nonsensical:
'In which we live in'?? Helloooo?? I cringe everytime I hear this. And it's not even as if you need both 'in's for the line to scan or rhyme. It's hideous. I'd rather hear fingernails run down a blackboard.
