In The Sheep Song FC Bergman tells the story of a being, no longer happy with itself. This being, Ovis Orientalis Avis, has more to offer, is meant for a more glorious life than his fellow-beings. 

And so Ovis Orientalis Avis gets ready for the ultimate transformation, determined to outsmart fate, the laws of physics and good taste. Dark clouds appear on the horizon. The thud of hooves shudders the earth. The open mouth awaits. The desire for change is a tempest that seems very difficult to still. 


 

Yes I am mother nature's son
And I'm the only one
I do what I want and I want what I see
Huh, could only happen to me
 
I'm so free
I'm so free
 
Oh, please, Saint Germaine
I have come this way
Do you remember the shape I was in
I had horns that bent
 
I'm so free
I'm so free
 
(Lou Reed, I’m so free)
