All That She Wants
♫ Ace of base Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She leads a lonely life
She leads a lonely life

When she woke up late in the morning light
And the day had just begun
She opened up her eyes and thought
Oh, what a morning
It's not a day for work
It's a day for catching sun
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 a hunter, you're the fox
The gentle voice that talks to you
Won't talk forever
It is a night for passion
But the morning means goodbye
Beware of what is flashing in her eyes
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 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

Overall Meaning

"All That She Wants" by Ace of Base is a song about a woman who leads a lonely life and seeks temporary companionship from men. The opening lyrics, "She leads a lonely life," set the tone for the rest of the song. The woman wakes up one morning with the intention of enjoying the day at the beach rather than working. She is not interested in a committed relationship and just wants to have fun with men. The lyrics, "All that she wants is another baby, she's gone tomorrow boy," suggest that the woman is seeking sexual companionship and nothing more.


Throughout the song, the woman is portrayed as a predator and men are her prey. The lyrics "She's a hunter, you're the fox, the gentle voice that talks to you won't talk forever" allude to the woman's manipulative nature. She uses her charm to seduce men, but her interest is only temporary. The song suggests that men should be wary of her intentions and not fall for her tricks.


Line by Line Meaning

She leads a lonely life
This woman goes through life feeling isolated and alone


When she woke up late in the morning light
After waking up late in the day, she opens her eyes and notices the morning sunlight


And the day had just begun
The day is early and there is plenty of time for activities


She opened up her eyes and thought
She starts to contemplate about the things she wants to do today


Oh, what a morning
The morning is beautiful and a perfect day for outdoor activities


It's not a day for work
Today is not for any form of formal employment


It's a day for catching sun
Today is perfect for spending time outdoors under the sun


Just laying on the beach and having fun
She is interested in relaxing on the beach and enjoying herself


All that she wants is another baby
She wants to have another child


She's gone tomorrow, boy
After she gets what she wants, she leaves and does not look back


So if you are in sight and the day is right
If you're around and the day looks good, she will pursue you


She's a hunter, you're the fox
She is predatory and likes to pursue men


The gentle voice that talks to you
She has a soft voice when she is trying to charm you


Won't talk forever
Her charming behavior is not sustainable


It is a night for passion
Tonight is a perfect night for romantic engagement


But the morning means goodbye
After a night of lovemaking, there will be no further commitment from her


Beware of what is flashing in her eyes
Don't be fooled by her fleeting interest in you


All that she wants is another baby
She desires to have another child


All that she wants
Her primary objective is to get what she desires

For someone to guide you on your way
