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
Locking rhythms to the beat of her heart, changing woman into life
She has danced into the danger zone, when a dancer becomes a dance It can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire
On a 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-build iron sanity is a place most never see
It's a hard warm 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 defeat
Never stopping with her head 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 a 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
