Songs for Dustmites is the debut album by American musician, actor and former Blue's Clues host Steve Burns. It was released on August 12, 2003, by PIAS America. The album was produced by Dave Fridmann, member of alternative rock band Mercury Rev and the producer of most of the albums by The Flaming Lips; and Ed Buller.
After quitting Blue's Clues, Burns, "in a position where [he] could do what [he] wanted", decided to collaborate with Fridmann and other members of The Flaming Lips. After receiving multiple offers from various record labels, Burns chose PIAS America. Songs for Dustmites is a pop/rock or indie rock album, and its lyrics are mostly about "science and love". It received positive reviews from music critics, although some of them believed that the album was only good because of his collaborations.
The song "Mighty Little Man" is used as the theme song to the CBS television show Young Sheldon.
