Colin Hay - Looking For Jack Lyrics
Everybody’s always looking for Jack
In the fire and in the water
Everybody’s always looking for Jack
In the streets and on the corners
He’s as cool as they come
Yeah, I always wanted to be like Jack
Still for me, he’s the one
Someday, someday
Someday, someday
Hear the wind blow through the long grass
I hear laughter in the night
No revelations as the years pass
As I grow older, I grow younger
Every day is like a dream
I wouldn’t go back for a moment
Except for maybe seventeen
Someday, someday
Someday, someday
Everybody’s always looking for Jack
In the fire and in the water
Everybody’s always looking for Jack
In the streets and on the corners
Yeah, even Jack is always looking for Jack
He’s always in another room
And when I spoke to the woman there
She said, "He left this afternoon"
Someday, someday
Someday, someday
Someday, someday
Someday, someday

Colin Hay Looking For Jack Comments
It was 87 Colin the best single for me was "can I hold you" the lighting effects and high octave vocals were harmonis a really heart-sy-vue single
This guy has such a great voice and sense of rhythm ... really like his music.
"Someday", the world may catch up to this brilliance.
This video is ridiculous even by 80s standards. The song is awful and absurdly simplistic too but the video... damn.

I love this guy.
I love Sting. but i'm sorry i think this Guy is a million times more talented then Sting. Maybe not a pretty but oh well, Tremendously Talented!!
I agree. Clearly here it's the marketing that made the differene
One of his best recordings, it's got everything. Wistful, reflective lyrics, great timing, and sung perfectly. I bought this album by chance in 1988 in a bargain bin sale and it is one of the best purchases I ever made for the sheer quality of the entire record. I saw him play in London to an indifferent crowd of about 150 in 1995 but he delivered a great set. He should have been a big solo star after MAW but it wasn't to be. Follow up Wayfaring Sons also has some good moments, especially 'Into My Life'.
80s Music Good for you for rescuing such a gem. I have this album with a signed cover when I saw him at a show in Las Vegas.
I agree ..I bought his album off the back of the single . Didnt really rate it. This is the best track on the Album ( in my opinion !)
Great composer , artist, distinctive voice from the Men of time at work ..... Magnificent Colin Hay
Thank you for sharing this video. You have such an amazing voice !
love this song & the Man.
Effects are perfect!
Awesome
