"Kansas City" is the first single by Australian dance group Sneaky Sound System, taken from their second studio album 2.

The music video for the song features a yellow brick road and dancing puppets including one that looks like the character of Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. In the Wizard of Oz Dorothy Gale was from the US state of Kansas. The Kansas City most people recognize (from skyline photos and sports teams) is the city in the US state of Missouri. Still, references to Kansas City being in Kansas can be technically correct because there is a separate municipality of Kansas City, Kansas across the Kansas-Missouri border from Kansas City, Missouri.

Kansas City has been the band's second highest peaking single ever. Second after their 2007 hit "UFO" which peaked at number #11. The single certified Gold with sales of up to 35,000
