Или, "Les Lucettes", песня Сержа Генсбура, 1966 года.

Про неоднозначность песни можно прочесть в вики, где-то там же есть и перевод текста на английский:

"Les Sucettes" was, on the surface, a pleasant children's song about a girl who likes aniseed-flavoured lollipops. But Gainsbourg's lyric was full of playful double meanings referring to oral sex, which Gall, aged 18, simply did not understand. She was filmed singing "Les Sucettes" for television programs, with actions and props playing on the sexual references. By Gall's account she did not realize until later why the filming attracted so many visitors to the set.
She was extremely upset upon finally learning the truth about the song's double meaning--"mortified, hiding herself away for weeks, refusing to face anyone". Gall said that she had sung Gainsbourg's songs "with an innocence of which I'm proud. I was pained to then learn that he had turned the situation to his advantage, mocking me."[3] In a 2001 television interview, Gall said that she felt "betrayed by the adults around me."

Обратить внимание на искренность девочки и ухмылку Генсбура.
