Lyrics :
Just a steel town girl on a Saturday night
Lookin’ for the fight of her life In the real-time world no one sees her at all They all say she’s crazyLocking rhythms to the beat of her heart
Changing movement into light She has danced into the danger zone When the dancer becomes the danceIt can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire
On a wire between will and what will beShe’s a maniac, maniac on the floor
And she’s dancing like she’s never danced before She’s a maniac, maniac on the floor And she’s dancing like she’s never danced beforeOn the ice-blue line of insanity is a place most never see
It’s a hard-won place of mystery touch it, but can’t hold it You work all your life for that Moment in time, it could come or pass you by It’s a push-shove world, but there’s always a chance If the hunger stays the nightThere’s a cold kinetic heat, struggling, stretching for the beat
Never stopping with her head against the windShe’s a maniac, maniac, I sure know
And she’s dancing like she’s never danced before She’s a maniac, maniac, I sure know And she’s dancing like she’s never danced beforeIt can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire
On a wire between will and what will beShe’s a maniac, maniac, I sure know (I sure know)
And she’s dancing like she’s never danced before She’s a maniac, maniac, I sure know And she’s dancing like she’s never danced before Maniac, maniac, I sure know And she’s dancing like she’s never danced before She’s a maniac, maniac, I sure know (I sure know) And she’s dancing like she’s never danced before
