Again, I don't know much about the characters or concept of the album,

Don't worry, neither do I, and actually I'm pretty sure that the only person who does is Sandy Pearlman. I find it hard to believe that even the members of BOC understand much of what the hell is going on in the Imaginos story except that it's about a bunch of aliens starting World War 1.

Honestly, I generally think the song functions better without even trying to place it in the context of any stories. Looking into it too hard just obscures some of the best and most poetic lyric writing ever in my view. So I'm glad you enjoyed it regardless of everything else!
