Some Dude: How are you?

Harper: I'm fine.

Harper's brain: "I am the eggman, they are the eggmen, I am the walrus." That's what the lyrics state. But how can I be the eggman and the walrus at the same time? Is it even possible to be both? A walrus isn't a man after all, so a walrus can't be the eggman. I'd have to be the eggwalrus. But I'm not the eggwalrus, the song clearly states that I am the eggman. That's impossible. Also, the phrasing of "the eggman" implies that there is only one eggman, but later the song claims that they are also the eggmen. So how can I be the singular eggman? And who is "they?"
