are there any poems that use this technique where they use words to mean one thing at first, but then recontextualise them to mean another in the subsequent lines?

is there a term for this?

double entendre

isn't that where you do the double meaning with all it's implications at first, rather than revealing it later?
and isn't it necessarily bawdy as opposed to my example?

I wish that was a boy

It's not necessarily bawdy, though it often(usually?) is. I'm not sure about your 'revealed after' qualification though, maybe that is its own literary device.

yeah i am specifically interested in words that mean one thing and you read/hear them in that way but then a later line makes you realise they meant something else

Kurt Cobain does it all the time

>I am human and I need to be loved
>Just like everybody else does

examples?

i'm more interested in if this is a thing in literature though, though i could see how it can work better in song because of the ambiguity of spoken word rather than text

A lot of rappers, too, but in their case it's usually just a vulgar boast of some sort.
