There was a band that performed at Disneyland for just one summer in 1981 named Halyx that wrote the song "Jailbait" with lyrics like this:

I, I, I said hey little cutie, I caught that look in your eyes, yes I did

Ah, ah, ooh, you make me weak, ooh, you give me butterflies

I said hey little cutie, looking for somewhere to go

You know you make me feel wanted, but not like it's a honorable

Why don't you wait till you're older, yeah yeah, you'll understand

Interestingly, this was written by the female lead singer about the recent introduction of age of consent laws.
