Just a steel town girl on a Saturday night
Looking for the fight of her life
In the real time world no one sees her at all
They all say she's crazyLocking rhythm to the beat of her heart
Changing movement into light
She had danced into the danger zone
When the dancer becomes the danceIt can cut you like a knife
if the fight becomes the fire
On the wire between will and what will beShe's a maniac, maniac on the floor
And she's dancing like she's never danced beforeShe'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 itYou 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 connective heat
Struggling stretching for the peak
Never stopping with her head against the windShe's a maniac, maniac I sure know
And she's dancing like she's never danced beforeShe'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 fight becomes the fire
On the wire between will and what will beShe's a maniac, maniac I sure know
And she's dancing like she's never danced beforeShe's a maniac, maniac I sure know
And she's dancing like she's never danced beforeI sure know, and she's dancing like she's never danced before
She's a maniac, maniac I sure know
