"Just One Fix" is the third single from industrial metal band Ministry's 1992 album Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed and the Way to Suck Eggs. The song features samples from Sid and Nancy, Hellbound: Hellraiser II and Frank Sinatra reciting "Just One Fix" (from the movie The Man with the Golden Arm).

The video, directed by Peter Christopherson of the band Coil, features footage of one of Al Jourgensen's influences, author William S. Burroughs.{{cite web |url=http://brainwashed.com/coil/writings/compulsion.html |title=COMPULSION NUMBER 1 |last1=Dickie |first1=Tony |date= |website=brainwashed.com |publisher=Brainwashed |access-date=August 23, 2016 |quote=Winter 1992}} Burroughs also provided the single's cover art.

"Just One Fix" was covered by thrash metal band Sepultura on the album Kairos.

In March 2023, Rolling Stone ranked "Just One Fix", at number 49 on their "100 Greatest Heavy Metal Songs of All Time" list.{{Cite magazine |date=2023-03-13 |title=The 100 Greatest Heavy Metal Songs of All Time |url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/100-greatest-heavy-metal-songs-1234688425/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230313191405/https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/100-greatest-heavy-metal-songs-1234688425/ |archive-date=2023-03-13 |access-date=2023-03-13 |magazine=Rolling Stone |language=en-US}}

It is rumoured that the Rammstein song "Du Hast" is based on the track, or that the guitar riff in the Rammstein track was cut and sampled directly from "Just One Fix" due to the similarity in the guitar riffs of both songs, but the members of Rammstein are quoted as saying that they were simply highly influenced by Ministry.http://affenknecht.com/main.php?sekce=till-lindemann Till Lindemann Interview {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110707092530/http://affenknecht.com/main.php?sekce=till-lindemann |date=July 7, 2011 }}

Video

A music video for the song was produced, and is notable for featuring Beat author William S. Burroughs in both audio and video samples. This version of the song features an audio sample of Burroughs saying "Bring it all down", and a sample of Chloe Webb's line "Never trust a junkie" from the film Sid and Nancy. The video was featured in an episode of Beavis and Butt-head called "Tornado" and a tornado also appears in the video. In their commentary, Beavis was so shocked during the hematemesis scene that he declared it "beyond the limits of good taste".
