"Steal My Sunshine" is a song by Canadian band Len, composed by band member Marc Costanzo with a writing credit to Gregg Diamond. It was released in July 1999 as the lead single from their third album You Can't Stop the Bum Rush.
The indie pop track became a sleeper hit when radio stations began playing it in March 1999, four months before Len planned to release their album. "Steal My Sunshine" had a commercial single release in July 1999, eventually peaking at number three on the Canadian RPM Top Single chart. Outside of Canada, "Steal My Sunshine" peaked within the top ten on the charts of Australia, the Republic of Ireland, the United Kingdom, and the United States. It received positive reviews from music critics, and its chart success caused Len to be considered a one-hit wonder. The song earned a nomination for "Best Single" at the Juno Awards of 2000.
The backdrop is based on a sample of a short instrumental portion of the Andrea True Connection's 1976 disco single "More, More, More", which Diamond wrote and composed specifically for the Connection's lead singer, former porn star Andrea True. Supposedly inspired by The Human League's 1981 synthpop hit "Don't You Want Me", the song's vocals alternate between Marc and Sharon Costanzo. Gregg Diamond, who was given songwriting credit as the original author-composer of "More, More, More", died three months before the album was released.

The lyrics make even less sense if you read them.
I was lying on the grass on Sunday morning of last week Indulging in my self-defeat My mind was thugged all laced and bugged all twisted wrong and beat uncomfortable in three feet deep Now the fuzzy stare from not being there on a confusing morning week Impaired my tribal lunar-speak And of course you can't become if you only say what you would have done So I missed a million miles of fun
I know it's up for me If you steal my sunshine Making sure I'm not in too deep If you steal my sunshine Keeping versed and on my feet If you steal my sunshine
I was frying on the bench slide in the park across the street l-a-t-e-r that week My sticky paws were in to making straws out of big fat slurpy treats An incredible eight foot heap Now the funny glare to pay a gleaming tare in a staring under heat Involved an under usual feat And I'm not only among but I invite who I want to come So I missed a million miles of fun
I know its done for me If you steal my sunshine Not something hard to see If you steal my sunshine Keeping dumb and built to beat If you steal my sunshine
My Sunshine If you steal my sunshine My Sunshine If you steal my sunshine My Sunshine If you steal my sunshine My Sunshine My Sunshine If you steal my sunshine My Sunshine If you steal my sunshine My Sunshine If you steal my sunshine My Sunshine
