Ah (Ah)

Out here alone on the urban streets
A life I didn’t choose
One day I dance upon the clouds
One day I pay my dues

I’ve set my sights on the action
‘Cause what I want is satisfaction

Dancin’ on the jagged edge
The jagged edge
Dancin’ on the jagged edge
The jagged edge

A girl like me must be prepared
To stand up straight and tough
My head is cool, my heart is strong
But times are gettin’ rough

I’ve set my sights on the action
‘Cause what I want is satisfaction

Dancin’ on the jagged edge
The jagged edge
Dancin’ on the jagged edge
The jagged edge

So inspired
So inspired, I’ll take a chance
My soul’s on fire
I’m not afraid to do the dance

No need to stop and wonder why
‘Cause time is movin’ fast
All I can do is do my best
And try to make it last

I’ve set my sights on the action
‘Cause what I want is satisfaction

Dancin’ on the jagged edge
The jagged edge (So inspired, soul on fire)
Dancin’ on the jagged edge
The jagged edge (So inspired, soul on fire)

Dancin’ on the jagged edge
The jagged edge (So inspired, soul on fire)
Dancin’ on the jagged edge
The jagged edge (So inspired, soul on fire)

Ah, ah, ah
Ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah

Ah, ah, ah
Ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ah

The jagged edge
Edge
The jagged edge (Jagged edge, jagged edge)
Edge

Dancin’ jagged edge
Edge
So inspired
Dancin’ jagged edge (Jagged edge, jagged edge)
Edge

Ah, ah, ah
Ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah

Ah, ah, ah
Ah

Dancin’
Dancin’

Dancin’ on the jagged edge
The jagged edge (So-so inspired, soul’s on fire)
Dancin’ on the jagged edge
The jagged edge (So-so inspired, soul’s on fire)

The jagged edge
