I disagree...I think it's about her own life, and how everyone says that she should call it quits cuz she's old (which makes me angry whenever people say that about Tori). China refers to her early song. She smokes/drinks maybe, which would explain the "friendly little substance". 25, 35, hints toward 45 (her own age), so she's subtly hinting toward her growing age, and how the record companies suggest you not write music as you get old. Funny thing is, she wrote better music when 35 than 25, so age only makes her better, no matter how they discouraged her, and this album shows that she's still a fantastic artist. :D <3 tori amos <3
