[Verse 1: James Dean Bradfield and Nicky Wire]
Famously unknown
Elusive and dismantled
A correspondence school behind
All the world, the darkest glass

[Pre-Chorus: James Dean Bradfield]
I don't need it, I don't fear it
I don't need it, I don't fear it

[Chorus: James Dean Bradfield]
Long Island blues in Locust Valley
In Locust Valley
Long Island blues in Locust Valley
In Locust Valley

[Verse 2: James Dean Bradfield and Nicky Wire]
Simply un-constructed
The shattered portrait's frame
I feel the words and company names
Of his attempts at empty fame

[Pre-Chorus: James Dean Bradfield]
I don't need it, I don't fear it
I don't need it, I don't fear it
[Chorus: James Dean Bradfield]
Long Island blues in Locust Valley
In Locust Valley
Long Island blues in Locust Valley
In Locust Valley

[Pre-Chorus: James Dean Bradfield]
I don't need it, I don't fear it
I don't need it, I don't fear it

[Chorus: James Dean Bradfield]
Long Island blues in Locust Valley
In Locust Valley
Long Island blues in Locust Valley
In Locust Valley
