In my case I'll say either Bloodhound Gang's The Bad touch or Aqua's Barbie Girl.

I mean.. what the hell is "hanky panky".

But for bonus points, I did also sing "take a walk on the wild side~" with no flying clue what "giving head" was supposed to be.

Oh wow, I'm today years old when I found out what that means.

I'm pretty sure there's never been an official definition for what it meant. I believe they claimed it stood for "other people's problems" back in the day while other people said "other people's pussy."

The lyrics aren't too ambiguous, I don't think...

O is for Other, P is for People scratchin' temple

The last P... well... that's not that simple

It's sorta like another way to call a cat a kitten

It's five little letters that are missin' here"

[...]

As for the ladies, OPP means something gifted

The first two letters are the same but the last is something different

It's the longest, loveliest, lean- I call it the leanest

It's another five letter word rhymin' with cleanest and meanest
