Best of Both Worlds (Live at the West End Marketplace, Dallas, TX, 12/4/1991) Lyrics by Van Halen

For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge (Expanded Edition)

1986

[Intro]
Well, guess what? it's fifty, one-fifty time
[Verse 1]
I don't know what I been livin' on, but
It's not enough to fill me up
I need more than just words can say
You know, I need everything this town can give me, hey-hey
Sometimes it's not enough
Come on, baby, close your eyes, let go
This can be everything we dreamed
It's not work that makes it work, oh
Let the magic do the work for you, 'cause honey
[Pre-Chorus]
Something reached out and touched me
Now I know all I want
[Chorus]
I want the best of both worlds
And honey, I know what it's worth
Give me the best of both worlds
I want heaven right here on Earth
[Verse 2]
And there's a picture in her gallery
Of fallen angels, looked a lot like you
We forget where we come from, sometimes
I had a dream it was really you
[Pre-Chorus]
Something reached out and touched me
Now I know all I want
[Chorus]
I want the best of both worlds
'Cause honey, I know what it's worth
We'd be the best of both worlds
Get a little bit of heaven right here on Earth
[Bridge]
Come on, Dallas, give me one of these
Come on, give me one of these
Hey
Well, these
These people are just fuckin' up up here like crazy
[Bridge]
Woah, you don't have to die and go to heaven
Or hang around to be born again
Just tune in to what this place has got to offer
'Cause we may never be here again, ow
[Chorus]
I want the best of both worlds
Give me the best of both worlds
I want the best of both worlds
And baby
We need the best of both worlds
We got heaven right here on Earth
Tell me, is it enough?
Now, will it ever be enough?
Woah-oh
[Outro]
Okay, dig it
We're gonna do one more song and they're gonna shut us down
Drive home safe when you go home, be careful, don't hurt yourself, alright?
