In the Song "Ten Foot Cock And A Few Hundred Virgins" Tim Minchin uses the phrase "it's a sin to take it up the date, even if it's great, even with your cowboy mate". I'm not a native English speaker - I have lived in the UK for a bit and consider my English to be quite good for a foreigner, but have never heard "date" used this way. Is it used in English in that way, am I mishearing it, is it an Australian thing, or did the singer just make it up to have something that rhymes?
