I'm just wondering because I don't think the song would have been created and/or caught on as well with the z = zed. To me having it zed at the end brings it to an abrupt halt and of course no longer (or just simply doesn't) rhyme with the ending "me"
The only reason why it's "zee" in the States is because of that song.
