If you just search for "hand me out to drive", literally all the results are websites that copied this insane transcription.

(For anyone not familiar, the actual phrase and what the song says is "hang me out to dry")

No idea if it's a good song, I've only listened to enough to figure out that it was the transcriber's bone apple tea not the singer

lol, I thought for a minute it was Cold War Kids, but that song is "Hang me up to dry" and followed by the lyrics "you rung me out" instead of "chew me up."

I looked up the Hamster song and the lyrics are also wrong in YT Music. And yeah, she very clearly says "hang me out to dry."

Lyrics are a pain now, and close captions on everything are hot garbage now too since they use "AI" to auto transcribe.
