I hear it at sports bars every week or so, kind of a rapping chorus with a bunch of shouted words, not really in a line of dialogue.

I realize there is a web site devoted to tunes with “Mazel tov” in the lyrics but it is searching for the earliest uses and I have no idea what any of the songs they mention sound like.

That’s it, all right. The song has legs: released in 2009.
