Case Dismissed

case dismissed
judge in the monkey suit
takes out zookeeper

Did you hear the one about the judge in the monkey suit?  
No, but I spotted that lady zookeeper,  
what a knockout in her sexy black dress. 

The story  I heard was that the judge 
took out the zookeeper.  

That explains the tuxedo -  to dinner and a play, maybe?  

Did I say tuxedo? I said monkey suit -  he belted her one in front of 
the jury.  Knocked her out cold right there  in the courtroom?  

What was he...some kind of animal rights' activist?   
I dunno? but the jury sure was a monkey's uncle.
