E! Entertainment Television is an American basic cable and satellite television network, owned by NBCUniversal. It features entertainment-related programming, reality television, feature films and occasionally series and specials unrelated to the entertainment industry.
E! currently has an audience reach of 88 million cable and satellite viewers in the U.S. and 600 million homes internationally.
E! Entertainment Television was founded by Larry Namer and Alan Mruvka.
The network launched on July 31, 1987 as Movietime, a service that aired movie trailers, entertainment news, event and awards coverage, and interviews as an early example of a national barker channel. Early Movietime hosts included Greg Kinnear, Paula Abdul, Katie Wagner, Julie Moran, Suzanne Kay (daughter of Diahann Carroll), Mark DeCarlo, Sam Rubin and Richard Blade. Three years later, in June 1990, Movietime was renamed E! Entertainment Television to emphasize its widening coverage of the celebrity-industrial complex, contemporary film, television and music, daily Hollywood gossip, and fashion.
I've been waiting all my life
I've been waiting for you to call me
Seasons are passing
Have i wasted my time?
Forty-eight hours have sustained
Fifteen minutes of real pain
How i survived this, i don't have a clue
I've been grasping to you
I will not come again
Say what you will coz i know what you're feeling
I will not come again
Do what you want coz i know why you're bleeding
I will not come again
Please don't take long coz the weight is impeding
I will not come again
I'm feeling alone and you're all that i'm needing
I've been waiting all my life
I've been waiting for you to call me
It's time for decisions so what will you do?
Will you still have to choose?
You may be too good for someone to hold
You're surely an angel that never grows old
Why am i calm when it's eating me up
Am i falling asleep?
instrumental
I've got your face burned in my head
From the first night we met
You were lost, twenty-two, tired of it all
Eyes like stop on black holes
I was living alone
The world went by down below
Through the window I watched it all
You've been here seven years clothes on the floor
Shadows crawling along the walls
Reminisce reticence learn to move on
Without you 'I would be' is gone
Try or fail to forgive
Nothing left to relive
I watch your black hair blow in the wind
Can we love again?
Do you feel a thing?
Will you take my hand?
I want to live again
In your eyes I see the sky go gray
Looking down as I say
'give me one more day'
In the distance I hear the rain
Fall
Fall
It's really more than I can say
Looking at this tower
Angels are off duty and asleep
In these wee hours
And there's no place I can go
And this noise inside my head
It comes and goes
It comes and it goes
There's really nothing you can stop
So I guess I'm gonna try
Climbing up this tower
Walking up the stones
Stocking feet
To the clock
This is one place that I know
And the face in front of me
It comes and goes
Not some lucky charm
But something to hold onto
That could hold onto me
And there's no place I can go
And this noise inside my head
It comes and goes
It comes and it goes
Tarot cards
Said I'm already dead
Crystal ball
Fell down onto my head
Tenderness
If I want it I pay
My true love
Well she threw it away
But I can shine it all on
I can shine it all on
I can shine it all on
And still be amazed
Had some money
And a hole in my pocket
Had a house
But I forgot to lock it
Took a drag
From a smoke that may kill me
What a drag
How the winter wind chills me
I can shine it all on
I can shine it all on
I can shine it all on
And still be amazed
I'll shine it on just like macbeth
In the face of certain death
Of a salesman or a king
And when the palm trees are on fire
I'll take my boat out on the sea
Had a face
But I never could save it
Had a kid
But I never would name it
Have a life
Well that's what they call it
It's a road
But I guess I could crawl it
(E/Jennifer Condos)
Don't know why
She thinks she loves him
Don't go try
He's just a toy
She calls it only love
Her love it is not pure
CHORUS
She loves a puppet
She loves a puppet
ANd all that I can do is cry
Got no soul
Only a haircut
He's no man
Barely a boy
Why can't she understand
That I am her true love
She loves a puppet
He's made of flesh and blood
His footsteps make a heavy thud
His porch light's on
But no one's home
I'd love to make her mine
But I have to wonder why
She loves a puppet
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(E/Jennifer Condos/R. Anderson/Susanna Hoffs)
You up there
Don't ya think there's something you can do?
Well no one ever told me it was gonna be this way
Me down here
Well look at all the things I try to do
Every day's another day but nothing else is new
CHORUS
Everything I see is broken
There's no water in the well
Oh wont't you please send me
Someone to break the spell?
Well is it me?
Or is it everyone that comes around?
They always stay a little while
But they're gone before too long
Hey you up there
Looking down upon this sorry scene
Is it what it's all about
Or is this some bad dream?
CHORUS
I've got a million dreams stuck in my head
If I could live a few before I'm dead
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm a loser and a screw up
Don't insult me you're no better
Lay back on it culture panic
Got a freckle on my vomit
I will never lie
Monday till Sunday .... s a m
E
as ever
It don't matter I am boredly
I'm a loser and screw up first
You kiss me then you leave me
Got a flimsy sonar rattle
it's so easy to be silly
(E)
Eight lives left
One chapter down
Still nothing new
In this old town
I'd like to spend at least one life with you
Eight lives left
And a heart that wants to be true
Five miles out
The depot is there
A Greyhound is waiting
To take us somewhere
I'd like to spend at least one life with you
Eight lives left
And a heart that wants to be true

"We want the airwaves!"
(E)
She hides in the library reading Henry Miller books
'Til they flash the lights
It's time to go
When she was a little kid she said,
"Dad, I don't know why I feel so penniless inside."
She's on the promenade
She's looking for a dress
She's locked outside a world
Just a Manchester girl
Oh I'll meet you there
By the old newsstand
Oh, I'll mee t you there tonight
Shoot out at the neighbor's house
She pulls the covers on her head
She's counting the shots as they go by
And Pandora's litter box
Well it's gettin' mighty high
That cat's gonna keep her up at night
Another scary dream
Another cigarette
She's locked outside a world
Just a Manchester girl

Walkin' along by the L.A. River
This river's such a joke and so am I
I don't know why I should believe her
I don't care what she says
I wanna die
I'd jump right in the drink
But there's no water
I'd jump right in and sink away from here
Poor river
Empty river
I'm feeling just like you
I'm feeling just like you
Walkin' along by the L.A. River
Stepping on broken glass, kciking cans
She's tellin' me I don't even know here
I guess there's some things I won't understand
I'd love to float away like old Tom Sawyer
I'd love to run away and be Huck Finn
Poor river
Empty river
I'm feeling just like you
Walkin' along by the L.A. River
Reading graffiti and throwing stones
She's looking for someone to deliver
She doesn't give a damn if I'm alone
I'd drive right in and drown
But there's no water
My head may hit the ground
But still I'm here
Poor river
L.A. River
I'm feeling just like you

Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na

Hello
Are you there?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh no
She's giving back my old raincoat
The one I said she could keep
Okay
She's taking back her umbrella
Well that's alright with me
Oh why
I feel like I'm a fighter
Who only wins despite
My broken bones
The winner stands alone
Every pocket has a hole
There is no hope
I'm walking around
In my old raincoat
Oh yeah
She's tearing up my old letters
She's setting fire to the heap
Oh joy
She says she's feeling much better
She says it's easy to sleep
Without me there
In the cool night air
The sun is shining
The sky is blue
And I am cold
Just walking around
In my old raincoat
Now I know I'm really free
Oh why
I feel like I'm a fighter
Who only wins despite
My broken bones
The winner stands alone
Every pocket has a hole
There is no hope
I've searched them all
Looking for a note
The sun is shining
The sky is blue
And I am cold
I'm walking around
In my old raincoat
Now I know I'm really free
(E)
Tomorrow I'll be nine
ANd everything will be the same
Tomorrow I'll be nine
It's only gonna be another day
THey're always looking at me funny
I'm always doing something wrong
I'm thinkin' they'd be better off if I was gone
Tomorrow I'll be nine
And everything will be the same
Tomorrow I'll be nine
It's only gonna be another day
They never tell me what they're thinking
They're always busy being mad
I start to thinkin'
Could it be 'cause I am bad?
Oh I'll go
Where I can't hear them
Oh I'll go
Away
There's got to be someone who wants me
There's got be someone who cares
Don't know where they are
But I am going there
Tomorrow I'll be nine
And everything will be the same
Tomorrow I'll be nine
I think it's time to make my getaway
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
what you've done to me
is not for the world to see
does bring back the anger,
it's crawling deep inside of me
'cause you're all I have worth waiting for,
left alone once more
what do you intend to do now?
when you dance for
when you dance through the night,
tonight
you know it's not right
you're not who you are,
you're losing it by far
heaven knows I do care,
'cause you're all I have been living for
now it don't seem so sure,
what do I intend to do now?
what do I intend to do now?
Do now do now
when you dance for,
when you dance through the night,
tonight
you know it's not right
when you dance for,
when you dance through the night,
tonight
E...
Vuoi da bere
Vieni qui
Tu per me
Te lo dico sottovoce
Amo te
Come non ho fatto in fondo
con nessuna
resta qui un secondo
E...
se hai bisogno
e non mi trovi
cercami in un sogno amo te
quella che non chiede mai
non se la prende
se poi non l'ascolto
E... uo... e...
sei un piccolo fiore per me
e l'odore che hai
mi ricorda qualcosa
va bè...
non sono fedele mai
forse lo so
E...
quando sento
il tuo piacere che si muove lento
ho un brivido
tutte le volte che il tuo cuore
batte con il mio
poi nasce il sole...
E... uo... e...
ho un pensiero che parla di te
tutto muore ma tu
sei la cosa più cara che ho
e se mordo una fragola
mordo anche te
uo... E...
sei un piccolo fiore per me
se l'odore che hai
mi ricorda qualcosa
va bè...
non sono fedele mai
Someone tell me how
They got crazies to make a circle
Something I never thought I'd see
Everyone should speak
Don't and they will make you
I can feel each person watching
Check myself out
While I check myself in
I'm doing the work
I'm baby stepping
Baby so maybe you won’t
Throw me, throw me away
Throw me, don't throw me away again
Throw me, throw me away
Throw me, don't throw me away again
Where's that god damn wishing well
The one that sorta works
It's early still, so hopefully no line
I have enough regrets, like this room full of jerks
But the smell of guilt and law suits me just fine
Sleep with an angel, but sitting with demons
I'm not the same as them, I know I'm better
Hope you know so you won't
Throw me, throw me away
Throw me, don't throw me away again
Throw me, throw me away
Throw me, don't throw me away again
Give me the chance and I might disappoint you
Better that I had the chance, than no chance at all
Save me a dance and I'll never let you go
This is the only thing that matters
Throw me, throw me away
Throw me, don't throw me away again
Throw me, throw me away
Throw me, don't throw me away again

She had the eyes of someone older
I have the eyes that wander 'round
I couldn't see what really mattered
Caught hell from my boss
Don't care about my job
Caught a cold from the rain
Don't care if I'm cold
Played every record that I own today
But the only thing I care about got away
She was a walking work of art
I am a broken wind-up toy
I thought I knew what really mattered
Got a flat on the road
Don't care about my car
Lost 26 bucks
Don't care about my rent
Caught every episode on TV today
But the only thing I care about got away
She had a brilliant future
I have a past
I have my memories
But they're fading fast
Caught hell from my boss
Don't care about my job
Caught a cold from the rain
Don't care if I'm cold
Played every record that I own today
But the only thing I care about got away
The only thing I care about got away
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let's not fight it anymore
Unpack the bags and close the door
I'll never leave you, no, no
Though you lied right from the start
I can't convince my stupid heart
Not to believe you
You've got two good men strung out
And there's not the slightest doubt
That other men have loved you before
But you work your thing so well
I'll dream of Heaven and live in Hell
Til I can't take it anymore
If I had one ounce of pride
I'd stand up or step aside
But girl, I love you, can't you tell it?
So I'll accept the crumbs you drop
'Cause I'm a fool and I can't stop
Or rise above you
Let him speak up for himself
I speak for me and no one else
'Cause I'm a beggar knockin' on your door
You work your thing so well
I'll dream of Heaven and live in Hell
Til I can't take it anymore
I'm too far gone to turn around
To lift myself up off the ground
And start all over, over and over and over
Now him or I must win or lose
No matter which one you may choose
You'll be in clover, you know you will
Darlin', while you're making up your mind
Well, I'll be prayin' all the time
Prayin' that you'll never, never, never be letting me go
But you work your thing so well
I'll dream of Heaven and live in Hell
Til I can't take it anymore
Girl, you work your thing so well
Dream of Heaven and live in Hell
Til I can't take it anymore
You know that you work that thing so well
I dream of Heaven and live in Hell
Til I can't take it anymore
You work it so well
I dream of Heaven and live in Hell

Il nome tuo ' garanzia
Mio aiuto da parte di te
Amore mio,
Mi manca l'aria
E mi manchi tu,
Le domeniche
E l'inquietudine
I bar I motel,
Il sesso tra noi,
L'oro e le briciole
Se canto non piango mai
A modo tuo mi hai amato
So che potrai avere molto di pi'
Emanuele,
Mi manca l'anima
E mi manchi tu,
Le domeniche
E l'inquietudine
I bar I motel,
Il sesso tra noi,
L'oro e la cenere
La ferita che fa male
Di pi' della solitudine
Se canto non piango mai,
Mai, mai, mai, mai, mai
(E)
I saw some photos of a happy family
Hanging up on the thrift shop wall
I paid the man and I brought them back home
I feel better now when they don't call
CHORUS
Every once in a while
I see your face when I stare at the ceiling
I truly regret
The day I wrote you off
Always dreamed that one day I'd leave home
And now I do it again and again
ANd here I go looking for my new home
Or shall I say looking for a best friend
CHORUS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
she's never known acceptance
she's never know the word
she says i like to call myself m
but my real name is mockingbird
mockingbird franklin
so how do you do
mockingbird franklin
i'm a lot like you
she says her mother is gone now
she says her mother got killed
i said i'm sorry but is it true
did she really name you mockingbird
mockingbird franklin
broke your heart in two
mockingbird franklin
i'm a lot like you
mockingbird don't you change
just because you're not like them
oh mockingbird you're not the same
alone along the sidewalk
her steps are barely heard
it's kinda funny that it's her name
'cus she's nothing like a mockingbird
nothing like a mockingbird
mockingbird franklin
don't it get to you
mockingbird franklin
i'm a lot like you
i'm a lot like you
(it's true)
(E)
I walked by your window
To see if you're home
The candle was burning
I could see you weren't alone
I shouldn't have gone by
But what could I do?
I've never known anyone
Who was quite like you
CHORUS
Life ain't very easy when you've got
A permanent broken heart
I walk down the dirty street
And see the old man
But now he seems different
I think I understand
Well maybe he had a love
And swore it was true
But then he blew it away
Just like I lost you
CHORUS
I'm looking out my window
There's not much of a view
And my hat is still quite blue
Maybe I'll move away
To some other town
And maybe I'll find that thing
I've never found
CHORUS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(E)
Well, I'll rise above
Once I forget
What it was like then before we met
I had no dreams
There was no plan
You see it's just that I was
A most unpleasant man
And now it all has come to pass
I guess I knew somehow it couldn't last
And so I'm back where I began
And once again I've become
A most unpleasant man
Where will I go if you're not here?
I'll try to find yo ueverywhere
Remember me
Not as I am
But how I was as your truest friend
Remember me
Not as I am
How did I ever become
A Most unpleasant man?
I'll see you later baby
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(E)
So what ya gonna do about me?
I been hangin' 'round a while
Trading books and knowing glances
I thought I'd stick around
But this really ain't my style
CHORUS
So this ain't heaven on earth
Looks like we'll have to wait
But we are standing at the gate
I took a look inside your attic
And secret shelves and hidden rooms
It didn't scare me when I saw it
Your hidden attic is no temple of doom
CHORUS
So what ya gonna do about me?
Put me on a secret shelf?
I wanna change myself around
You know I'd do it
If I thought that it would help
CHORUS
