What is Myxomatosis?
1.
(mix*oh*mah*toe*sis) Also known as 'myxomatosis cuniiculi'. Myxomatosis is a disease which only infects rabbits and is caused by the myxoma virus. First seen in Uruguay in the 1900s, it was intentionally introduced into Australia to control the rabbit over-population.
Also one of the best tracks from the rock band Radiohead's sixth album entitled 'Hail to the Thief' released in 2003.
A lyric excerpt from Radiohead's myxomatosis:
now no one likes a smart arse but we all like stars
that wasn't my intention, I did it for a reason
it must have got mixed up
strangled, beaten up
i got myxomatosis
i got myxomatosis
