Flashdance movie - Maniac lyrics

rate me

Song by Michael Sembello<br /><br>

Just a still town girl on a saturday night, lookin' for the fight of her life<br>

In the real-time world no one sees her at all, they all say she's crazy<br>

<br>

Locking rhythms to the beat of her heart, changing woman into life<br>

She has danced into the danger zone, when a dancer becomes a dance<br>

<br>

It can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire<br>

On a wire between will and what will be<br>

<br>

She's a maniac, maniac on the floor<br>

And she's dancing like she's never danced before<br>

She's a maniac, maniac on the floor<br>

And she's dancing like she's never danced before<br>

<br>

On the ice-build iron sanity is a place most never see<br>

It's a hard warm place of mystery, touch it, but can't hold it<br>

You work all your life for that moment in time, it could come or pass you by<br>

It's a push of the world, but there's always a chance<br>

If the hunger stays the night<br>

<br>

There's a cold connective heat, struggling, stretching for defeat<br>

Never stopping with her head against the wind<br>

<br>

She's a maniac, maniac, I sure know<br>

And she's dancing like she's never danced before<br>

She's a maniac, maniac, I sure know<br>

And she's dancing like she's never danced before<br>

<br>

[Solo]<br>

<br>

It can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire<br>

On a wire between will and what will be<br>

<br>

She's a maniac, maniac, I sure know<br>

And she's dancing like she's never danced before<br>

[repeats out]<br>

<br>
