A Day In The Life Of A Whale Hunter

I am a whale hunter
I don't just sit here and wonder
what I will do next. I watch for my prey
slowly I wait, when Hey!
Whales love bait! I've got an idea.
I grab my new car, it's a shiny blue KIA
and drive all the way to the shop.
I am so excited I can barely see,
that I run into an apple tree.
When I wake up, I see a man dressed in red.
I feel dizzy, I want to go to bed.
The man said " You are a Whale Hunter, what did whales ever do to you?
Stop what you're doing you'll surely regret,
if so I'll place a $50 bet.
Right then I realized that I should have gone to jail, but ever since then I haven't touched a whale.
