All That She Wants Lyrics

She leeds a lonely life - she leeds a lonely life

When she woke up late in the morning light
and the day has just begun
she opened her eyes and thought
o' what a morning
it's not a day for work
it's a day for catching tan
just laying on the beach and having fun
she's going to get you

all that she wants is another baby
she's gone tomorrow boy
all that she wants is another baby
all that she wants is another baby
she's gone tomorrow boy
all that she wants is another baby

all that she wants - all that she wants

so if you are in sight and the day is right
she's the hunter you're the fox
the gentle voice that talks to you
won't talk forever
it's a night for passion
but the morning means goodbye
beware of that is flashing on her eyes
she's going to get you

all that she wants ...

Jeez, I can't believe how stupid I was - I always thought this was some bizarre song about a woman who wanted a baby - literally. The colloquial use of 'baby' did not occur to me with regards to this song. Another lover. So I always just thought it was an extremely odd song about an extremely weird woman. HA!

@Heliamphora HAHA, same here !! lool And now reading through the lyrics, the hunter and the fox stuff... thinking "Man she wants that little baby so hard..."

@Heliamphora Nowadays, she may want "another baby,", especially for welfare and child support. There are single women with numerous children from as many men to collect a child support check and get all the welfare subsidies.

Straight from Reagan propaganda in the 80's.

i think this song is about a girl who just play with boys, she's lonely, and i think she's sad, and she wants to have a lot of guys in just one night stand, and leave them in love with her at the next morning, she has evil ways, but she's not bad, she's just depressed.

I LOVE this song! OMG the memories Ace of Base brings back, lmao. It's about a girl who's basically a vixen, and instead of working she likes to lounge around, get a tan, and treat herself like a queen. She's always on the lookout for guys, but she just wants some fun. She'll be with him for the night,ya know a one night stand, and then she's gone in the morning...ready for her next "baby"

I used to think this was about a girl who was going on holiday to find a man for a one-night stand so she could get pregnant and not have to have the guy around. And that 'another' baby was because she had a miscarriage or something. Man, my mind is a dark and horrible place.

You don't know me but buddy you made me laugh so much that I was really unable to control myself. Pls. excuse my overly expression of feelings but its been more than a year for me trying to get over a breakup with a woman who has had 15 boyfriends or relationships by the age of 30 and although I knew it all but she was so much successful to make a big fool out of me. No doubt Adam was deceived so successfully by Eve in the heaven! Phew.... women... Grrrrrrr!!!! :)

You did make my day and I just wanted...

Did she have any children? Because you're not a BIG fool until you get into a relationship with a woman who has given birth 5 times and each child has a different daddy and you're suckered into believing she's the abused ex-wife when the judges awarded full custody to the two dads she actually married. 3 of her children don't even know who their real dads are and every six months she brings home a new "daddy". I would just love to see someone see through her deception and put her in her place- in a straight jacket at...

@WavinGerbs I'm SO glad to know I'm not the only one! In '93 I jammed out to this, I was 6, then when I was 8, I was like, "huh?!"

i think this is about like a lady who is like missing something and she fills it with a guy. She wants to feel loved because she feels empty and the guy will make her feel loved for that one night of passion and than she'll leave and look for another baby to fill her soul.

The girl in this song reminds me of the chicks I see every day on the Maury Show-

Maury- "[Guy's name], you ARE the father!" ATSW Girl- "I told you dat's yo' baby! Pay me my child support! Where my money at?!?"

This song is exactly what it sounds like to me. As Heliamphora once thought it meant, she literally wants another baby, and it's a strange song about a strange woman. It has a very literal meaning for me and I cannot hear this song any other way. I know a woman exactly like this. She has given birth 5 times, each baby has a different father. The first one was given up for adoption, the next two are under custody of the fathers, and the two after that don't even know who their fathers are. It's a cycle for her, every six months she hooks up with a guy until she gets pregnant, then she kicks the guy out so she can keep the baby. Six months after the baby is born, she's starting over with another guy. It's really sad. It's a sad song about a woman with a serious mental illness and the men who fall victim to her wiles because they just want to help an "abused" welfare mom.

My Interpretation

Exactly how I hear it too. And especially nasty how it's expressed by another woman – the vocals of Ace of Base, who, oddly, don't look the part ether way. Not that looks matter, but since we're calling a duck for a duck...

I can't hear it any other way, either, because it happened to me...

Great comments - from 4 years ago ha ha ha but what is time anyway
(other than a minor demon in the pantheon of adversaries...)

This song is an anthem to teen pregnancy in the welfare state - OR a glimpse into the mind of an a beach combing man-hunter...

This song just came on the radio and reminded me about it. I miss these hearing it...it used to be on all the time...times change tho it seems. I don't think she wants a child, just a man, which it seems she'll be getting.

Yep. She always wanted a man and that's what she ended up with although most of the band members aren't so lucky. I'm so excited about the new album though! :)
