Under Attack is de laatste originele single van de Zweedse popgroep ABBA. Het nummer is afkomstig van het compilatiealbum The Singles: The First Ten Years.
Under Attack was een van de laatste nummers die ABBA ooit opnam. De groep was van plan een geheel nieuw studioalbum uit te brengen, maar de stress die het werkklimaat met zich meebracht - het boterde niet meer zo tussen de leden - leidde ertoe dat de groep een pauze inlaste, waarna er een compilatiealbum uit werd gebracht met alle singles van de groep.
Toen Under Attack werd uitgebracht, was ABBA's populariteit reeds tanende.

Songtekst
Don't know how to take it, don't know where to go
My resistance running low
And every day the hold is getting tighter and it troubles me so
(You know that I'm nobody's fool)
I'm nobody's fool and yet it's clear to me
I don't have a strategy
It's just like taking candy from a baby and I think I must be
Under attack, I'm being taken
About to crack, defences breaking
Won't somebody please have a heart
Come and rescue me now 'cause I'm falling apart
Under attack, I'm taking cover
He's on my track, my chasing lover
Thinking nothing can stop him now
Should I want to, I'm not sure I would know how
This is getting crazy, I should tell him so
Really let my anger show
I feel like I was trapped within a nightmare
I've got nowhere to go
Still undecided I suppose
yes, it's what I wanted
but I'm scared as hell
Staring down the deepest well
I hardly dare to think of what would happen
Where I'd be if I fell
Under attack, I'm being taken
About to crack, defences breaking
Won't somebody please have a heart
Come and rescue me now 'cause I'm falling apart
Under attack, I'm taking cover
He's on my track, my chasing lover
Thinking nothing can stop him now
Should I want to, I'm not sure I would know how
Under attack, I'm being taken
About to crack, defences breaking
Won't somebody please have a heart
Come and rescue me now 'cause I'm falling apart
Under attack, I'm taking cover
He's on my track, my chasing lover
Thinking nothing can stop him now
