Born Myra Ellen Amos, the daughter of Reverend Edison Amos and Mary Ellen Amos, on August 22, 1963, in North Carolina. She was a piano prodigy from the beginning, playing by ear at age 2 1/2, and writing her own songs by age 4. It's been said that by age 5, she could play anything on the piano after hearing it only once. She won a scholarship at the Peabody Conservatory in Baltimore, Maryland - the youngest person ever to be admitted there. She always ran into trouble there, as they discouraged her from composing her own music.

Father Lucifer Lyrics
Tori Amos
Father lucifer you never looked so sane
You always did prefer the drizzle to the rain
Tell me that youre still in love with that milkmaid
How the lizzies
Hows your jesus christ been hanging
Nothings gonna stop me from floating
Nothings gonna stop me from floating
He says he reckons Im a watercolour stain
He says I run and then I run from him and then I run
He didnt see me watching from the aeroplane
He wiped a tear and then he threw away our appleseed
Nothings gonna stop me from floating
Nothings gonna stop me from floating
Everydays my wedding day
Though babys still in his comatose state
Ill dye my own easter eggs
Dont go yet
And beenie lost the sunset but thats ok
Does joe bring flowers to marilyns grave
And girls that eat pizza and never gain weight
Father lucifer you never looked so sane
You always did prefer the drizzle to the rain
Tell me that youre still in love with that milkmaid
How the lizzies
Hows your jesus christ been hanging
