The narrator of this song is asking the three explorer’s famed Britain explorers: David Livingstone, Captain Robert Falcon Scott, and Christopher Columbus what they have seen and if they have meet anyone worth living for
[Verse 1]
Doctor Livingston, I presume
Stepping out of the jungle gloom
Into the midday sun
What did you find there?
Did you stand awhile and stare?
Did you meet anyone?
"I've seen butterflies galore
I've seen people big and small
I've still not found what I'm looking for"
[Chorus]
We're all looking for someone
We're all looking for someone
We're all looking for someone
[Verse 2]
Captain Scott, you were so bold
Now you're looking rather cold
Out there in the snow
What did you find there?
Did you stand awhile and stare?
Did you meet anyone?
"I've seen polar bears and seals
I've seen giant Antarctic eels
I've still not found what I'm looking for"
[Chorus]
We're all looking for someone
We're all looking for someone
We're all looking for someone
[Verse 3]
Columbus, where are you bound?
So you think the world is round?
Sailed off in the blue
What did you find there?
Did you stand awhile and stare?
Did you meet anyone?
"There are Indians by the score
In many places that I saw
I've still not found what I'm looking for"
[Chorus/Outro]
We're all looking for someone, now
We're all looking for someone
We're all, we're all looking for some-some-someone, now
We're all looking for someone...
