"Ebeneezer Goode" is a song by Scottish electronic music group the Shamen. Remixed by the Beatmasters, the song became their biggest hit when released as a single on 24 August 1992 by One Little Indian, topping the UK Singles Chart for four weeks. The group's original version featured on the vinyl edition of their fifth album, Boss Drum (1992).

"Ebeneezer Goode" was one of the most controversial UK number-one hits of the 1990s due to its perceived oblique endorsement of recreational drug use, and it was initially banned by the BBC. It has been claimed the single was eventually withdrawn after the band were hounded by the British tabloid press, although the Shamen stated it was deleted while at number one due to its long chart run "messing up our release schedule". Its music video was directed by Richard Heslop.
