It's Spider singing. Shane got cold feet about singing his own lyrics ("I've been wandering round the National Gallery/Wanking over pictures of Saint Sebastian") and confines himself to singing the backing vocals (with me). It's one of the two punk songs we supplied to Alex Cox for Sid And Nancy (the other was "Glued Up And Speeding", also sung by Spider, with Shane on lead guitar). I'm not sure where either/both of them happen in the movie, as I've not seen it since the premiere, but I've a feeling one of them is heard on a car radio briefly. "Hot Dogs" was on the b side of "Haunted", on the 12" at least, but did not make it to the Soundtrack CD. Obviously both numbers are prime candidates for the Pogues Treasure Chest in due course.
