this song is ironic, and yes, it could possibly be influenced by their relations with the brian jonestown massacre, who dabbled in dope quite frequently. this song is about someone who does heroin "just to be cooler in an obvious way". so they began shooting up to be cooler, and now they are addicted, which wasnt the plan, and now, the fad is over and it's passe. so the person who originally did heroin because it was "in" is now addicted to it, and now it's "out". it's really quite funny.
