Rob (aka Rez) composes and records using mainly Reason, Pro Tools, and Ableton. He had an early start in production after building a studio in his basement to record his highchool bands. Rob has studied classical and jazz piano, rock and jazz guitar, and jazz drums and has been in many bands (genres spanning ska, metal, pop punk, jazz, funk, and alternative), playing both guitar and drums. Rob spent a few years in college DJing at different Boston bars while double majoring in Music and Philosophy at Tufts University.

Cal is a singer/rapper and songwriter from the New York City area. He’s been singing and freestyling since he was young and remembers doing freestyles at the dinner table. He graduated Tufts University majoring in Music and Entrepreneurship. Upon joining the band The Ride in his sophomore year at Tufts, Cal fell in love with the performance side of music. This blues, funk, and hip- hop band was noted for their unique style, given their ability to transcend musical genres. Cal later teamed up with The Ride’s drummer, Rob, to form Timeflies. Cal’s musical influences include Robert Johnson, Janis Joplin, Muddy Waters, and his favorite, Big L. Cal’s biggest strength and weakness, is his love for scotch.
Lay Me Down
Timeflies Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No sleepin' on me, baby, stay up
Been a minute since I hit you with my old stop, pro stop
Drive the lane we should lay up
Like all day, all night, all day
Order Japanese in bed, I'm down with the role play
Down with you always comin' for me
Stay forever, don't you ever leave
So won't you lay me, won't you lay me down?
Won't you lay me, won't you lay me down?
Won't you lay me, won't you lay me down?
Won't you lay me, won't you lay
Down, down, down
You, you lay me
Down, down, down
You lay me
Down, down, down
You
I bench press, wake up with a French press
And a crossword, one down, but I digress
Poached eggs in my finest robe, never tie this
Loungewear leisure, lookin' like your highness
That means you, my queen, left the yokes out for you
I got hopes now for you, Leslie Knope's on for you
Stay in, say, "we never have to leave"
On forever, put your body on me
Won't you lay me, won't you lay me down?
Won't you lay me, won't you lay me down?
Won't you lay me, won't you lay me down?
Won't you lay me, won't you lay
Down, down, down
You, you lay me
Down, down, down
You lay me
Down, down, down
You, won't you lay me
Down, down, down
You lay me
Down, down, down
You, you lay me
Down, down, down
Lay, lay, lay me
Down, down, down
Won't you lay, lay, lay
Lay me down
Won't you lay me down
Won't you lay me down, down, down
Won't you lay me down
Won't you lay me down, down, down
It's cuffing season, that's the reason
Just this weekend, you and me can get so deep in
Every episode we know of every season
Order in and don't stop eatin'
Put your lips on mine, just so Parisian
While we're dressing down like we're in Eden
You could kill me now, I'd rest in peace
And I would be fine with you by my side
So won't you lay me, won't you lay me down?
Won't you lay me, won't you lay me down?
Won't you lay me, won't you lay me down?
Won't you lay me, won't you lay, lay, lay me down?
Won't you lay me down
Won't you lay me down, down, down
Won't you lay me down?

Line by Line Meaning
You got me feelin' all the way up
You make me feel extremely happy and fulfilled
No sleepin' on me, baby, stay up
Don't ignore or underestimate me, stay awake and alert
Been a minute since I hit you with my old stop, pro stop
It's been a while since I showed you my best moves
Drive the lane we should lay up
We should take the opportunity to score easily
Order Japanese in bed, I'm down with the role play
Let's have Japanese food in bed and engage in playful fantasies
Down with you always comin' for me
I'm happy that you're always there for me and eager to be with me
Stay forever, don't you ever leave
I want you to stay with me forever and never abandon me
So won't you lay me, won't you lay me down?
Can you please make love to me and lay me down?
Down, down, down
Repetition for emphasis
I bench press, wake up with a French press
I work out and drink coffee from a French press in the morning
And a crossword, one down, but I digress
I enjoy solving crossword puzzles, but that's not the main topic
Poached eggs in my finest robe, never tie this
I eat poached eggs while wearing my best robe, and never wear a tie with it
Loungewear leisure, lookin' like your highness
I wear comfortable clothes like loungewear, looking like royalty
That means you, my queen, left the yokes out for you
I'm referring to you as my queen and I left the egg yokes for you to enjoy
I got hopes now for you, Leslie Knope's on for you
I have high hopes for our relationship and I'm referencing a character from a TV show we both like
Stay in, say, "we never have to leave"
Let's stay indoors and say that we never have to leave
On forever, put your body on me
Let's continue to be together forever, and physically be close to each other
It's cuffing season, that's the reason
It's the time of year when people seek relationships, that's why we're together
Just this weekend, you and me can get so deep in
We can get emotionally and physically intimate just this weekend
Every episode we know of every season
We're familiar with every episode of every season of our favorite TV shows
Order in and don't stop eatin'
Let's have food delivered and keep eating without stopping
Put your lips on mine, just so Parisian
Let's kiss each other in a romantic and passionate way, like in Paris
While we're dressing down like we're in Eden
While we're wearing comfortable and simple clothes, like in the Garden of Eden
You could kill me now, I'd rest in peace
I love you so much that if I died now, I'd be at peace knowing that I had you in my life
And I would be fine with you by my side
Being with you is all I need to be happy and fulfilled
Won't you lay me down?
Can you please make love to me and lay me down?
It's repetition for emphasis
The repetition of 'lay me down' is used to stress the desire for intimacy
