"Land of Sunshine" is the opening track to Angel Dust, the fourth studio album by the American rock band Faith No More. It was released as a promotional single in 1992 along with "Midlife Crisis" and has been compared in its opening style to "From out of Nowhere", the opening track and first single from the band's previous studio album, The Real Thing. The song's lyrics contain, amongst other things, questions from Scientology personality tests, with one of them, the question "Does emotional music have quite an effect on you?", being described by Tom Sinclair of Rolling Stone as "the perfect tag line for Angel Dust ". The song was one of the three key songs picked out by Robert Christgau from the album in his review, the two others being "Midlife Crisis" and "Midnight Cowboy".

The lyrics for "Land of Sunshine" were written by Mike Patton alongside "Caffeine" during a sleep deprivation experiment and included lines taken almost directly from fortune cookies and the Oxford Capacity Analysis personality test offered by the Church of Scientology. He also watched lots of late-night television to get into the right frame of mind.

There are three lines taken from the personality test, although a fourth appears in the lyric booklet with Angel Dust; question 179 "Do others push you around?". Two of the questions used were shortened slightly for their use in the song, question 27 "Do you often sing or whistle just for the fun of it?" had the words 'the' and 'of it' removed, and question 196 "Do you sometimes feel that your age is against you (too young or too old)?" was shortened to "Do you feel sometimes that age is against you?". The third and unchanged line is question 69, "Does emotional music have quite an effect on you?" is featured during the choruses along with the words "Here's how to order".
