Just a steel town girl on  a  Saturday night   Looking for the fight of her life
 5  -6   6    6    6   6  -5  6  -6  6  -5     -5  -6   6   6    6   -6  6   -5 

In the real time world no one sees her at all   They all say she's crazy
-3  -5   5   5    5    5   5   5   -5  5   5     5    5   5   5   -5  -3 

Locking rhythms to the beat of her heart   Changing movement into  light
 5  -6   6  6   6   6   6  -6   6   -5     -5  -6    6   6   6 -6   -5 

She has danced into the danger zone   When the dancer becomes the dance
-3  -5    5    5  5  5  5 -5 5  5      5    5   5  5   5  -5  -3   -3  


It  can cut you like a knife   If the gift becomes the fire
-6  -6  -6  -6  -6  -6  -6     -6  -6  -6  -6  7   -6  -5  

On   a   wire  between will and what will be
-6  -6  -6  -6  -6  -6  -6   6   -5   6   6  


She's a   maniac,    maniac   on the floor
-5    6  -6  6 -5   7 -6  6   -5 -5  -5 -3 

And she's dancing like she's never danced before
-5   6    -6  -6   -6  -6    -6  6   6    -5  -3 

She's a   maniac,    maniac   on the floor
-5    6  -6  6 -5   7 -6  6   6  6  -5  -3 

And she's dancing like she's never danced before
-5   6    -6  -6   -6  -6   -6  6    6    -5 -5 (-3  3  -2 )


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 beat
Never stopping with her hair 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
-6  -6  -6  -6  -6  -6  -6     -6  -6  -6  -6  7   -6  -5 

On   a   wire  between will and what it will be
-6  -6  -6  6  -6  -6   7    7   7   -6  7  -7 

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
