When the series was broadcast on Nine Network Australia, the intro had a unique theme song not heard anywhere else. All other broadcasts of Nate Is Late use the original theme song or a dubbed version of it.

Just another trip to school for Nate and Malika
Adventure awaits, they're ready to shine
Even if they play it cool, will Nate and Malika
Ever, ever be on time?

What's your excuse today?

Nate and Malika
Always try to get to school
But every day, there's an adventure
That is so incredibly amazingly cool!

Hey, let's go, Malika!
Oh yeah, you got it, Nate!
So sorry, Principal Prudence!
We're always, always late, late, late!
Always, always late, late, late!

Elke dag opnieuw dan wordt voor Lars en Malika
De bocht naar hun school één groot avontuur
En al doen ze hun best, toch raken Lars en Malika
Nooit op school op 't juiste uur

Wat is vandaag jullie excuus?

Every day for Lars and Malika
The journey to their school becomes one big adventure
And even though they try their best, Lars and Malika
Never get to school on time

What is your excuse today?

Die Schule geht gleich los,
Es wird Zeit für Mats und Malika
Ein Abenteuer wartet, und sie sind bereit
Doch diese eine Frage, bleibt
Warum sind Mats und Malika
Wieder, wieder voll zu spät?

Welche Ausrede habt Ihr heute?

It's time for Mats and Malika
An adventure is waiting, and they are ready
But this one question remains
Why are Mats and Malika
really, really late again?

Which excuse do you have today?
