"Wonderland" is a single by XTC released in June 1983, written by Colin Moulding and taken from the album Mummer.

Unlike most of XTC's work - which usually features a more guitar-oriented sound - "Wonderland" is heavily laden with synthesizer textures, most of which came from a Prophet-5 (the band's main synthesizer at the time).[2]

This was the only single issued in the U.S. by Geffen Records from the album.

A promotional music video was directed by Peter Sinclair.[3]

This is one of the songs from the Mummer sessions to feature drummer Terry Chambers prior to his departure from XTC.[citation needed]

Andy Partridge has subsequently described "Wonderland" as one of Moulding's "most beautiful melodies".[4]
