I know Morphine fans most rabidly deny any connection between Mark's lyrics, the music, and drugs but...damn! This is a pretty inside knowledge portrayal of the attitude of new heroin users-"It won't get me!", and the attitude of dealers and longtime users when they hear it. Great song, musically, and the closing refrain of "poor Honey" is an empathetic response to the situation.
Note that "writing accurately and insightfully about drug use" is NOT the same as saying Mark or members of Morphine were druggies, addicts or even users...but it's ridiculous to deny the KNEW about what they were conveying so well. Me, I don't care either way, I loved Sandman and mourn the loss of a creative genius and good man.

"Yes, Dad. Life is already sweet; I find it so."
"Later, Son, I shall talk with you about Marijuana. Soon, when everything is ready. Gotta' go now; thanks for hearing me out, goodnight and have a GREAT one!"
Meantime, Little Sister for once was not eavesdropping. Strong warning.

She makes a deal with the Devil. As usual, it doesn't turn out to be a good one, from her perspective.
