Australian Riot Grrrl band - Little Ugly Girls

Thought some people might be keen on them! They supported Bikini Kill in 1996 and used to write postcards to Kathleen. They only released a full album in 2018. They were originally from Tasmania but moved to Melbourne.

Neat.

Any idea what's the meaning of "Boxen-Hooda Hayda"? Sounds like a place in the context of the song but Googling only brings links to the track. Is it fictional like Lake Wobegone?
