France Gall. This song from 1966, composed by Serge Gainsbourg, is titled
Les Sucettes ("
Lollipops"). There is this videoclip:
Quote:
"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."

"When the barley sugar
Flavored with anise
Sinks in Annie’s throat,
She's in heaven."
Oh, Serge, how could you be so wicked!
