Knorkator gained further fame (and some notoriety) in 2000 with their performance of Ick wer zun Schwein (sic; literally - berlin dialect "I'm turning into a pig") in the German national qualification for the Eurovision song contest. Knorkator's wild stage shows and explicit lyrics, as well as the fact that nearly half of the vocalist's body is tattooed black, have earned them a reputation as a chaotic comedy band; however, the band's music actually shows considerable technical and artistic merit that is sometimes overlooked.
Most of Knorkator's lyrics are in German; however, some songs also feature English (Beating around the bush, Ma Baker etc.), Thai (Mai khao djai, Khid tyng baan), Latin (Aeger sum, Absolution) or French (Ma belle fêmme, Franz Hose) lyrics.

All That She Wants
Knorkator Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
O' what a morning
It's not a day for work
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's a night for passion
But the morning means goodbye
Beware of that is flashing in her eyes
She's going to get you
All that she wants
is another baby
Knorkator's song All That She Wants presents a sad picture of a young woman who leads a lonely life despite her attempts to find joy and happiness. The repetition of the phrase 'she leads a lonely life' reiterates the loneliness that this woman experiences on a regular basis. The song begins with the woman waking up late in the morning, and experiencing the beautiful light and beginning of a new day. This presents an ideal scenario for most people, but for her, the realization of the fun she could have instead of going to work only amplifies her feelings of loneliness. When she says, “It’s a day for catching sun, just laying on the beach and having fun," she is expressing her longing for an idealized life where she can enjoy herself without being held back by responsibilities and commitments.
As the song progresses, it becomes clear that this woman is looking for a quick fix to fill the void in her life. When she sings “all that she wants is another baby,” she isn’t necessarily singing about a literal baby. Instead, she is seeking only temporary satisfaction and excitement to distract herself from the emptiness of her everyday existence. She is portrayed as a heartless hunter in pursuit of someone to bring temporary joy into her life. This presents a sad reality about how people's feelings of loneliness can often drive them to actions that negatively affect others.

She leads a lonely life
She is living a solitary and isolated life
When she woke up late in the morning
When she woke up late in the morning
Light and the day had just begun
It was still early in the day
She opened up her eyes and thought
She opened her eyes and had a thought
O' what a morning
She thought the morning was beautiful
It's not a day for work
She felt that it was not a day for work
It's a day for catching sun
It was a day to enjoy the sun
Just laying on the beach and having fun
She thought it would be fun to lay on the beach
She's going to get you
She is on the hunt
All that she wants is another baby
She desires to have another child
She's gone tomorrow boy
She will be gone tomorrow, leaving the boy behind
All that she wants - all that she wants
All she wants is another baby
So if you are in sight and the day is right
If you are in her presence and the timing is right
She's a hunter you're the fox
She is a predator and you are the prey
The gentle voice that talks to you
She has a soft voice that speaks with you
Won't talk forever
She won't talk forever
It's a night for passion
It's time for passion for her
But the morning means goodbye
The morning will bring goodbye
Beware of that is flashing in her eyes
Beware of what her eyes are revealing
