The Lyrics
It is interesting to witness the thematic shift that occurs in some musicians’ lyrics as they get up in years.
Hair keeps on droppin’, droppin’, droppin’ onto my shoulders
Hair keeps on droppin’, droppin’, droppin’ onto my shoulders
I’m going bald like an eagle
Gallantly
Bald like an eagle
Check it - oh, say, can’t you see?
I’m talon-loose like an eagle, and
Feather-free
Oh, Lord, what a transformation
Lose the hairpiece
Just toss it into the street
Nix the comb-o’er
You’re not bein’ discreet
Air your egg head
Hawk it in a tweet
Oh, yeah, it’s a sensation
I’m going bald like an eagle
By the sea
Bald like an eagle
Now my hair is an aerie
I’m going bald like an eagle
Erne-estly
No need for depilation
Hair keeps on fallin’, fallin’, fallin’ onto my slippers
Hair keeps on fallin’, fallin’, fallin’ onto my slippers
Hair keeps on fallin’, fallin’, fallin’ onto my slippers
Hair keeps on fallin’, fallin’, fallin’ onto my slippers
I’m going bald like an eagle
Wild and free
Bald like an eagle
Featured on Discovery
I’m going bald like an eagle
Scout-to-be
So much for preparation
Hair keeps on cloggin’, cloggin’, cloggin’ all of my drainpipes
Hair keeps on cloggin’, cloggin’, cloggin’ all of my drainpipes
Hair keeps on droppin’, droppin’, droppin’ onto my shoulders
I’m going bald like an eagle
Gallantly
Bald like an eagle
Check it - oh, say, can’t you see?
I’m talon-loose like an eagle, and
Feather-free
Oh, Lord, what a transformation
Lose the hairpiece
Just toss it into the street
Nix the comb-o’er
You’re not bein’ discreet
Air your egg head
Hawk it in a tweet
Oh, yeah, it’s a sensation
I’m going bald like an eagle
By the sea
Bald like an eagle
Now my hair is an aerie
I’m going bald like an eagle
Erne-estly
No need for depilation
Hair keeps on fallin’, fallin’, fallin’ onto my slippers
Hair keeps on fallin’, fallin’, fallin’ onto my slippers
Hair keeps on fallin’, fallin’, fallin’ onto my slippers
Hair keeps on fallin’, fallin’, fallin’ onto my slippers
I’m going bald like an eagle
Wild and free
Bald like an eagle
Featured on Discovery
I’m going bald like an eagle
Scout-to-be
So much for preparation
Hair keeps on cloggin’, cloggin’, cloggin’ all of my drainpipes
Hair keeps on cloggin’, cloggin’, cloggin’ all of my drainpipes

Hair today, gone tomorrow. I read an article in a magazine that claims women find bald men sexy. Let me know how your situation works out and I might invest in a razor.
Good comparison song choice ...
