I've only heard this sung in Maryland accents by a folk song group called Clam Chowder, so I don't know if it's a real song Down Under. But they like to use songs from the far reaches of the English-speaking world, so maybe it is.
Oh yeah, lek!
Half an hour to Buffy, my fellow East Coast Americans! Whatever you do, don't gloat! Nope, don't do it! Wouldn't be prudent!
