The song like the entire Scarletts Walk Album has dual meanings;1) This song is both about an aspiring young and naive actress who seeks the spotlight but is forced to support herself by doing porn...she hopes that noone finds out but by accident she becomes a huge porn star and instead of feeling ashamed she realizes she is fine with it.
2) The most important undertone of the song is about AMERICA being the great whore. That is where "Amber waves" comes from(for amber waves of grain, America, America God shed his grace on thee). Tori sees the lives of this country and the girl are parallel. America was once this innocent nation that strived and fought its way to the top and when it got there it had nothing else to do but start selling itself to the highest bidder.
