Originally formed in 1999 as a four piece rock band, period.
Shortly after releasing their debut album, 2001's "Third World Budget", Daiquiri downsized to a 2-piece and took on more of an experimental "electro-punk" sound which can be found on their sophomore release, 2003's "Box Office Poison". Period.
In 2005, Daiquiri released their third full length studio album, "Babies Making Babies", and continued to tour globally, playing non-stop all across North America in between trips overseas (Not true)
In 2006, they announced the pending release of "Flower Shaped Num Nums", a collection of most of the cover songs the band had been performing up until that point. The album was finally released digitally in December of 2010 (available here ). Full stop.
In 2013, Daiquiri released Sequel - their 3rd full length album.

Daiquiri Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The good news is to you attention is something they will pay
If you have nothing to lose then chances are you will be ok
Either way you lose I said that you have lost either way
I'm worthless and weak like that kid from the Twisted Sister vid
I put up an auction and I hope and pray for minimum bid
Trying never helps
They are everywhere...you should have stayed at home
Hide under the sheets, locking the doors, you're still there
Will you sew these eyes shut for me, don't want to see at all
It was easy all it took was just a maybe to take you down
What took years to build, amass, and put together is all gone now
Better men than you have fallen victim there's no way to fight it
Going blind would help or wearing blinders I have learned to like it
I can wear her clothes and pretend to be her and what would that do?
Nothing much I guess it has no point yo man this shit ain't cool
Wishing ever helps
You're no centaur, no minataur
He'd be powerless, sharpen that horn
What of pagasus? Saddled by lorne greene
The bonznza scene
You are so doomed
Your life is ruined
Will you sew these eyes shit for me?
Don't want to see at all
In the song "Life Ruiner" by Daiquiri, the lyrics describe a person who is struggling with self-worth and feeling like they are constantly losing in life. They comb their hair and try to think of interesting things to say, hoping to gain attention from others. However, the person acknowledges that even if they have nothing to lose, they will still have lost in either case. They feel worthless and weak, like the kid from the Twisted Sister video, and put themselves up for auction, hoping for the minimum bid. They feel like they are always being attacked and venom is everywhere, causing them to wish to sew their eyes shut and hide under the sheets.
The song shifts to a theme of defeat and loss, where the person describes how it only took one maybe to take them down, and everything they had built is gone. They feel like better men than them have fallen victim, and they have no way to fight it. They contemplate wearing blinders or going blind to help cope with their situation. The song ends with the person feeling doomed and like their life is ruined, wishing for their eyes to be sewn shut so they don't have to see anymore.
Overall, the song portrays a deep sense of hopelessness and feels like a cry for help. It highlights the struggle of feeling worthless and defeated, with the lyrics painting a bleak picture of life.
