"Time Flies" was written by [[Rivers Cuomo]] and [[Mac Davis]], likely in [[2009]]. Davis started working on the song while waiting for Cuomo to arrive at his home. By the time he arrived, Davis was mostly finished with the song, only requiring a final verse. Cuomo co-wrote the final verse and, despite writing credits usually being split 50/50, stated he didn't want half of the writing credit as Davis had written most of it.<ref>Kawashima, Dale.
