Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
Can't think of anything worse
She don't bring much to the party no
Her eyes are glued to her phone
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
She'll do whatever it takes
Bend over backwards for you
Oh and she's climbing and climbing
Anybody will do, yeah
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
(Solo!)
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
Angelica, she's a blood sucker
So keep away
from her
She's poison through and through
You better run, boy, run, boy, run, boy
Before she gets her hooks in you
"Angelica" by Slaves is a song about a woman who is a bloodsucker, a metaphor for someone who is draining energy and life out of a person. The singer describes Angelica as someone who doesn't bring anything to the party, as she is only glued to her phone. This implies that she is self-centered and only concerned with herself and her own interests.
The lyrics also suggest that Angelica is manipulative and will do whatever it takes to climb the social ladder, even if it means hurting others. The singer warns the listener to stay away from her as she is poison to anyone who comes into contact with her.
Overall, the song explores themes of toxic relationships and the need to distance oneself from people who drain one's energy and life force.
