"Lollipop (Candyman)" is a song by Danish-Norwegian dance-pop group Aqua. It was released in November 1997 by Universal Records as the fifth overall single from their debut album, Aquarium (1997), in Australasia, North America, and mainland Europe. However, it was not released in the United Kingdom. "Lollipop" features a prominent role for René Dif, with vocals also from main vocalist Lene. The US CD and cassette single include "Good Morning Sunshine" as the B-side. The song failed to replicate the success of "Barbie Girl", "Doctor Jones", and "My Oh My" where it was released. In the United States, it became their second top-40 hit and last song to chart there, peaking at No. 23, until 26 years later, when the group was credited on the 2023 Nicki Minaj and Ice Spice single "Barbie World". The single reached the top 10 in Sweden and Australia, staying at number three for five consecutive weeks in the latter country.

I am the Candyman - Coming from Bountyland
I am the Candyman - Coming from Bountyland!

I wish that you were my Lollipop
Sweet things, I will never get enough
If you show me to the sugar tree,
will you give me a sodapop for free?

Come with me Honey,
I'm your sweet sugar Candyman
Run like the wind - fly with me to Bountyland
Bite me, I'm yours - if you're hungry please understand
This is the end - of the sweet sugar Candyman

Oh my love - I know you are my Candyman,
And oh my love - your word is my command
Oh my love - I know you are my Candyman,
And oh my love - let us fly to Bountyland

You are my Lollipop - sugar sugar top
You are my Lollipop - sugar sugar top

I wish that I were a Bubble Gum,
chewing on me, baby, all day long
I will be begging for sweet delight,
until you say I'm yours tonight

Come with me Honey,
I'm your sweet sugar Candyman
Run like the wind - fly with me to Bountyland
Bite me, I'm yours - if you're hungry please understand
This is the end - of the sweet sugar Candyman

Oh my love - I know you are my Candyman,
And oh my love - your word is my command
Oh my love - I know you are my Candyman,
And oh my love - let us fly to Bountyland

Oh my love - I know you are my Candyman,
and oh my love - your word is my command
Oh my love - I know you are my Candyman,
And oh my love - let us fly to Bountyland

I am the Candyman - Coming from Bountyland
I am the Candyman - Coming from Bountyland!

Oh my love - I know you are my Candyman,
And oh my love - your word is my command
Oh my love - I know you are my Candyman,
And oh my love - let us fly to Bountyland

You are my Lollipop - sugar sugar top
You are my Lollipop - sugar sugar top
