Michael Sembello - Maniac (From "Flashdance")

Just a steel-town girl on a Saturday night Looking 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 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'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-blue line of insanity Is 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-shove world, but there's always a chance If the hunger stays the night

There's a cold, kinetic heat Struggling, stretching for the peak Never stopping with her head against the wind

She's a maniac, maniac at your door And she's dancing like she's never danced before She's a maniac, maniac at your door And she's dancing like she's 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 at your door And she's dancing like she's never danced before She's a maniac, maniac at your door And she's dancing like she's never danced before

Maniac, maniac at your door And she's dancing like she's never danced before
