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 the dancer becomes a dance
It can cut you like a knife,
If the gift becomes the fight,
All the while you're 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 line of sanity,
It's 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 up world, but there's always a chance,
If the hunger stays alive
There's a cold connective heat,
Struggling, stretching for defeat,
Never stopping with her head against the wind
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
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
