I found this lyric transcription a few years ago and it has now spread to like every lyrics website (lemmy.world)

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")

We’re reentering the “lyrics are functionally not online” era of trying to understand lyrics. I’ve noticed this with trying to search for videos with lyrics on YouTube, whatever content mills churn them out are all pulling from the same source with the same typos.
