I think what you mean by 'referencing' is how it has plays the Latin motto that is located around the pyramid on a dollar bill. The motto is something like...'Annuit cceptis. Novus ordo seclorum'. Unfortunately I don't know the bonus question. I'm sorry!

That's right. As for the second part, he's saying, ' Sparky holds the Secret' and is refering to a cartoon caracter from the 50s. They put the backward messages on there to poke fun at the (false) accusations about them putting backward satanic messages in their music. They even went as far to put a label on their Killroy was Here album stating that it had backward messages on it...
