Indie song but punk artist (former member of Propagandhi, maybe most famous for leading the Weakerthans): John K. Samson, "When I Write My Master's Thesis" via YouTube. It was an alternative rock chart hit in Canada.
“No more marking first-year papers
No more citing sources
So I left home, cried the bumpy ride to Highway 23
Started west
They'll be there to say that I don't need to take their stupid test
Greet me with banners and balloons and my hard drive smashed to pieces
Nothing left for me to save when I write my master's thesis
It's all gonna change when I write my master's thesis”
