Michael Sembello - Maniac lyrics 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 crazyLocking rhythms to the beat of her heart Changing woman into life She has danced into the danger zone When a dancer becomes a danceIt can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire On a wire between will and what will beShe’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 beforeOn 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 nightThere’s a cold connective heat, struggling, stretching for defeat Never stopping with her head against the windShe’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 beforeIt can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire On a wire between will and what will beShe’s a maniac, maniac, I sure know And she’s dancing like she’s never danced beforeShe’s a maniac, maniac, I sure know And she’s dancing like she’s never danced beforeManiac, maniac, I sure knowVideos and LyricsWham! - Wake Me Up Before You Go GoFat Boys & Chubby Checker - The TwistMilli Vanilli - Girl I’m Gonna Miss YouBobby Brown - My PrerogativeWet Wet Wet - With a Little Help from My FriendsDaryl Hall & John Oates - I Can’t Go for That (No Can Do)
