All That She Wants
Box of Laces Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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 ...
The song "All That She Wants" by Box of Laces is an upbeat track with an underlying dark theme of a woman's desire to have multiple children while leading a lonely life. The song describes the singer leading a lonely life and waking up one morning to a beautiful day, perfect for catching some tan on the beach. However, the woman's primary goal is to find another man to have a baby with as she desires nothing more than to have multiple kids.
The chorus repeats the title of the song โAll That She Wants,โ emphasizing her desire for another baby. The lyrics suggest that the woman's desire for a baby is obsessive and that she is willing to use sex to obtain it. The chorus also warns the men she preys on that she will leave after she gets what she wants, as she is not interested in having a long-lasting relationship with them.
The song's lyrics could also be interpreted as a warning to men about manipulative women who only use them for their reproductive abilities. In general, the song is a catchy tune that disguises a darker message behind it. It is a song that sheds light on the complexity of human desires and the lengths people are willing to go to achieve them.
