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 crazy

Lockin rythms to the beat of her heart
Changing movement into light
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 never danced before
She's a maniac
Maniac on the floor
And she's dancing like
She never danced before
On the ice-thin line of insanity
It's 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 of the world
But there's always a chance
If the hunger stays the night

There's a cold connective heat
Struggling, stretching for the beat
Never stopping
With her head against the wind

She's a maniac
Maniac, I'll show you
And she's dancing like
She never danced before
She's a maniac
Maniac, I'll show you
And she's dancing like
She 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'll show no
And she's dancing like
She never danced before
She's a maniac
Maniac, I'll show no
And she's dancing like
She never danced before
Before

She's a maniac
Maniac, I'll show no
And she's dancing like
She never danced before
She's a maniac
Maniac, I'll show no
And she's dancing like
She never danced before
Dancing like she never danced before

She's a maniac
Dancing like she never danced before
She's a maniac
Maniac on the floor
