"The Piper" is a track from the 1980 album Super Trouper by Swedish pop group ABBA. The song draws inspiration from the classic tale of The Pied Piper of Hamelin, as well as Stephen King's novel The Stand, according to lyricist Björn Ulvaeus. Some fans view it as notably distinct from ABBA's previous mainstream work, featuring darker elements and a medieval musical style.
