Maniac (Michael Sembello cover) Lyrics

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 think she's crazy

Locking rhythms play 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-built iron sanity

is a place that was never seen

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 through the night

There's a cold connective heat

struggling stetching 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

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

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

and she's dancing like she's never danced before
