Michael Sembello - Maniac

Just a still 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 huner 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
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
