Sycamore TreeKali Uchis

Released: February 4, 2015

Songwriter: Kali Uchis

Producer: A. Ben-Abdallah

"Sycamore Tree" is a song that examines the tension and dynamics that exist between two people when one is strongly attracted to the other. The repeated question of "what you want me for?" suggests that the singer may feel objectified or used, while the other person is entranced by the singer's allure. Read more on Last.fm.

[Chorus]
What you want me for?
What you want me for?
What you want me for?
What you waiting for then?
What you want me for?
What you want me for?
What you want me for?
What you waiting for then?

[Bridge]
Yeah, I don't know how you do what you do
But damn
Yeah, I don't know how you do what you do
But damn

[Verse]
Sweeter than a sycamore tree
He was buzzing, buzzing just like a bee for it
He said he never met a girl who make it euphoric
He said he never met a girl like me
And no, I don't think you're lying
I see it in your eyes
You wanna compromise

[Chorus]
What you want me for?
What you want me for?
(Tell me what you want)
What you want me for?
What you waiting for then?
(Tell me what you want)
What you want me for?
What you want me for?
(Tell me what you want)
What you want me for?
What you waiting for then?

Kali Uchis

Karly-Marina Loaiza (born July 17, 1994), better known as her stage name Kali Uchis, is a Colombian-American singer, songwriter, record producer, music video director, and fashion designer.

Sporting a 50’s aesthetic (from which Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald are cited influences), Kali’s brand of art pop spans the length of many genres of soul (doo-wop, reggae, funk, quiet storm, psychedelia) with a Latina twist.

Kali grew up playing saxophone and piano; she was introduced to music production and video editing while she was in high school and released her debut project Drunken Babble in 2012. Since then, Kali has gone on to release a 2015 EP, Por Vida, and her debut album, Isolation, in 2018.
