  1. Sir Walter Raleigh introduced tobacco to the UK, and was at one time Queen Elizabeth's favourite. Apparently he lay his cloak on the ground so Elizabeth wouldn't have to step in mud. He was subsequently beheaded.

    I think John Lennon was just easily pissed off.

    Oh, well now having read the lyrics it becomes obvious.
