We make a point of always pronouncing Z as "zed" in our house, because that's the British/Canadian way. We were delighted to find that even some of the educational toys that we were given do that. It almost makes up for how bad the songs and recordings on them are.
In order to continue the rhyme to the end of the song, and also confuse our children, we often make up our own endings. They include, but are not limited to:
"Now I know my alphabet, and it's time to go to bed."
"Now I know my alphabet. Let's sing something else instead."
"That's the whole darn alphabet. Do you think you've learned it yet?"
