Regarding Yoko Ono, I read an interview with Roger somewhere where he said that those lyrics had been inspired by a dream that the drummer on the album had had (that would be Andy Newmark, I guess?). In Andy's dream, said Roger, he was standing on the wing of an airplane ("standing on the leading edge, the eastern seaboard spread before my eyes") and Yoko Ono was telling him to jump. Personally, I don't tell people when I have dreams like this... :-)
