Finally Done Right
Seabird Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To reclaim his throne
I guess we should have known
That this day would come
The psychic couldn't read it
Crystal ball couldn't see it
I guess we should have known
Gonna take back the stage
Change the whole game
Clear up [Incomprehensible]
'Cause Michael's here to stay
The psychic couldn't read it
Crystal ball couldn't see it
I guess we should have known
That Michael would come home
And oh no, here comes now
His feet move faster than light
Oh no, here he comes now
The moonwalk finally done right
We made you a king
Before they made you a monster
If music was your queen
I pray you've not forgot her
Michael's come home
Michael's come home
To reclaim his throne
I guess we should have known
That this day would come
The lyrics to Seabird's song "Finally Done Right" seem to be inspired by the iconic king of pop, Michael Jackson, and his legacy. The song starts by referencing Michael's return, implying that he's been away for a while, but now he's back to reclaim his throne. The lyrics suggest that Michael Jackson is the king of pop, and his presence in the music industry is unparalleled. The song then goes on, saying that even the psychic couldn't read or predict that Michael would return, but now he's back in full force, ready to take back the stage.
As the song progresses, we get a more significant insight into what the writers envision for Michael Jackson's return. He's going to change the whole game and take back the stage with his unique style, clearing up any doubts that people might have had about his abilities. The chorus repeats the idea that Michael's comeback was inevitable and that he was always meant to reclaim his throne.
The second verse is somewhat nostalgic, where the writers reminisce about how people used to regard Michael Jackson as the king of pop before he faced controversy. They prayed he hadn't forgotten that music was his queen, meaning that music was more than just a career, but it was his passion. The song ends by reaffirming Michael's return and that he's here to stay, and we should have known that this day would come.
