"What Can I Do (For You)" is a song featured in "We Need to Talk". It is a duet sung by Rose and Greg, shown to Steven and Connie in one of Greg's old videos. The song was intended to be a duet between Rose Quartz and Greg, but became a fusion song when Rose and Pearl fused into Rainbow Quartz mid-performance. It's one of the show's more sultry songs, and establishes the love triangle between Pearl, Rose, and Greg.

The song is available to stream on Spotify.

Lyrics

[Rose Quartz and Greg] What can I do
For you?
What can I do
That no one else can do?
What can I do
For you?
What can I do
For you?
[Rose Quartz] Human man
You are so much fun
I hadn't planned
On finding you quite this entertaining
I like your band

([Garnet] Woo!)
And I like your song
I like the way
Human beings play
I like playing along
Oh-whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh~
[Rose Quartz and Greg]
What can I do
For you?
What can I do
That no one else can do?
What can I do
For you?
What can I do
For you?
