Big Blue Marble

Sometimes we forget We are travelling through the cosmos On a big blue marble We are a mere speck In our vast universe Driving on our big blue marble I glance at the speed limit signs Whizzing by at 90 mph When I notice the blue lights In my rearview mirror So I cannot help but ask "What does it matter That I am doing 90 As we speed through space At 66000 mph"? "Tell it to the judge" The cop tells me He isn't thinking about Our big blue marble

I guess the cop did not instantly know what the big "blue marble" was. I think it is strange that I did when I saw your title.
