This was my first Morphine favorite back in the '90s and I always thought it was about opiates. He's trying to clue us in to some secret, so it's not about sex. And he mentions how the devil turned him onto it, so it's probably taboo or illegal. Big deal, guys, so he wrote a song about a drug. It didn't make anyone I know start using opiates. It's just a great freakin' song that could have been about the moon or the ocean. Doesn't matter. I just wish he was still writing songs...
