  We're gonna have the best day ever
  Hmm hmm

  Dude. Dude.
  When was the last time that you
  Waked and baked and went outside
  It's beautiful in the daylight
  It's fun
  Soaking up the midday sun
  While our brother's sitting in a cubicle
  Why don't we break him out
  Give him a summer now
  Yeah it's better late then never
  Better late than never
  Yeah it's better late than never

  We're gonna have the best day ever
  Hmm hmm
  We're gonna have the best day ever
  Hmm hmm

  Dude!
  Tell me what would be the perfect day for
  You!
  For me it would probably be an adventure
  Unexpected, kinda weird, kinda chaotic
  Meet some people and they probably think that we're psychotic
  Win them over
  Smoke a little something
  That's exotic
  Diving in the water

  Better late than never
  Better we're together
  Nah nah
  No I don't need the pressure
  When it's this good of weather
  I don't care
  Yeah whatever
  Better late than never
  Enjoying the good weather
  Me and you
  My dude!

  We're gonna have the best day ever
  We're gonna have the best day ever
  We're gonna have the best day ever
  Hmm hmm

  We're gonna have the best day ever
  We're gonna have the best day ever

  It's better late than never
  Better we're together
  Tired of the pressure
  Down for whatever
  Better late than never
  Better we're together
  Tired of the pressure
  Down for whatever

  We're gonna have the best day ever
  Hmm hmm
  We're gonna have the best day ever
  Hmm hmm

Standalone single (**September 2025** · Beformer / indiemono), released between the [*I*](/albums/i/) closing run and the [*US*](/albums/us/) chapter EPs.

Not every Scoobert song is a koan. This one is two dudes deciding the cubicle brother needs a summer, right now, in daylight. The perfect day isn't optimized. It's unexpected, kinda weird, kinda chaotic, maybe psychotic-looking to strangers until you win them over.

"Better late than never" runs through the whole thing like a permission slip: you don't need the perfect plan or the perfect weather forecast, just the willingness to go outside and see what happens. The hook is literally just *we're gonna have the best day ever* repeated until you believe it.
