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.
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...

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...
