    Maybe Beck? Que’ Onda Guero always makes me giggle.

    And, a bit of a different genre but Father John Misty’s songs are sarcastic and often nonsensical. They sound all romantic and dreamy but the lyrics don’t always match the vibe.

      Beck is a tough one because he does have a lot of goofy songs, but they’re mixed in with ones that are strange and surreal but less goofy.

      Debra is a great example of a funny Beck song.

      Girl I want to get with you / Only you / And your sister / I think her name is Debra

      Lady, step inside my Hyundai

        Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

      I thought of another one. That band Bloodhound Gang has some goofy songs. Obviously they have that one over-played song, but they also have a song that is just Ralph Wiggins quotes.
