Just a Steel-Town girl on a Saturday night Lookin' for the fight of her life In the real time world no one sees that at all They all say she's crazy
Lockin' rhythms to the beat of her heart Changing woman into life She has danced into the danger zone When the dancer becomes the dance
It can cut you like a knife If the gift becomes the fire On the wire between Will and what will be
She'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 before
On the ice-filled line of sanity It's a place most never see It's a hard won place of mystery You 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 of the world but there's always a chance If the hunger stays alive
There's a cold, cold native heat Struggling, stretching for the beat Never stopping with her hair Against the wind
She'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 before
It can cut you like a knife If the gift becomes the fire On the wire between Will and what will be
She'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 before
She's a maniac, maniac I sure know 'Cause 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
She's a maniac Dancing like she's never danced before She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
