The lyric is something like "Lifes a rollarcoaster, turn me around, something something something when I'm upside down."

Right. So, you peaked my curiosity and I started digging. This one took a bit of effort, so I'm going to do a lead-up. Why? Because I'm evil like that.
First off, for those who don't live in Canada, or (like me) never turn on their televisions:
Some of you with sharp ears may be able to spot immediately that the first line is not "life's a rollercoaster," but rather "I'm a rollercoaster."
'Aha!' Thought I, 'so this is why Google failed me.'
Well, no, it's not. Turns out that this little ditty was stirring up quite a bit of curiosity :

Cadbury, in their typical style, was keeping mum on the whole thing.
Now, a lesser man might've been content to just leave it at that. The song is an unknown! One of life's many mysteries. Or Cadbury's mysterys, anyway (I still want to know how they get the damn caramel in the bar). I am no such man, and after further searching and scouring, discovered this :

So, in conclusion, the song is called Rollercoaster, aka the Candy Song and it's by a rather obscure Canadian group (formed by a Bulgarian and an Icelandian, no less) known as Major Maker who are bound to be less obscure after this. The video is available for streaming on their above website.
Don't say I never do anything for you.
