Whoever said the hives dont write their own songs, in their cd it says their songs are written by Randy Fitzsimmons, a fictional character made up by Howlin Pelle and the gang it is believed.

This song is pure punk rock. The hives are the best band on the planet, and this is one of the fine example, my fav song by them too, prophet

The song is about the character selling his body for experimental drug testing to get some quick cash. The chorus is one of the best parts, explaining how his life (teenage hell) is something he just wants to find a way out of (the back door, in this case risking his life in drug testing). As long as he can get quick money and trust the company to try even more experimental drugs on him to counteract the first one, then he's fine with it.
