John K Samson - When I Write My Master's Thesis

John K  Samson lead singer of Canadian band The Weakerthans, released his solo album, Provincial, last week and this the track from it which came to my attention a week or so ago.  Apologies for the delay in posting. When I Write My Master's Thesis http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeTtl2JOPFU&feature=related  is the songwriter's take on Dylan's When I Paint My Masterpiece and contains various references to video games and all those nerdy things students do to fill the time when they should be working.  Sound familiar? 

Also just released is a book entitled Lyrics and Poems 1997-2012 and both this and the cd can be ordered through Samson's website.
