Heroes and Zeroes

I'm held together with
Duct tape and bubble gum
The whole of which is not much more
Than the sum of the parts
It's an art I can't disclose
Nobody knows

I keep my head on straight with
Caffeine and nicotine
Keep it lean but that's just the
Breaks of the game
And I'm tame till I get to the throes
Nobody knows

I'm standing down
But I'm still around
Heroes and zeroes and me
I'd just as soon we let them be

I occupy my time with
Loose lips and battleships
And I try to let all the chips fall
Where they may
And I say in rhyme what I can't say in prose
Nobody knows
