Alizée didn't write it, she just sang it. Mylène Farmer wrote it. I've been reading over the lyrics, which on the surface look a bit banal. But with Mylène, there's never just one meaning.

Mylène wrote another historical song for Alizée, Tempeste, which is definitely about Napoléon. Industrial has an interesting idea about VVV being about Caesar and Cleopatra, but it's not obvious from the lyrics that that's true.
