Funny music. It's a tricky one. As in music that is funny. Not music that is 'funny'. Music that makes you laugh, but doesn't make you want to hurt people. I'm not talking about 'comedy' ska-punk/ metal covers of pop songs. I'm not talking about Frank 'fucking' Zappa. I'm talking about Ivor Cutler and Half man Half biscuit. But other properly funny musicians? I'm at a loss.
Go...

Fred Lane Residents Gong Most "funny music" drives me to a murderous rage within about 5 seconds, but some people are clever and musically adept enough to make humor a viable method |

Half Man Half Bisuit and Ivor Cutler are certainly the two obvious ones.
Farces Wanna Mo Songs from The Mighty Boosh I, Ludicrous ...um, I'm stuck.

Residents are a funny [sic] one for me. I haven't quite got it yet, but I don't hate them, which is my usual reaction to 'wacky' music. Which makes me think there's something there, I just haven't found it yet. Gong, top example. Somewhere near the Incredible String Band, who make me laugh in a, "Aww. Twee and English" type way. Bonzo Dog Do Da band do my head in though.

Couldn't get Ahead is amusing, that band are most good at most funny songs, especially when you don't expect them to be funny (also, Dr Bucks Letter).

Not a huge fan, but I suppose the Jazz Butcher might be one of these types as well.

...I quite agree. But for me, like The Smiths and sometimes Big Audio Dynamite, that's a band inserting the occaisional bit of humour rather than being a 'funny band'.

Legendary Pink Dots and Nurse With Wound both have moments of extreme hilarity and whimsical mirth, but this seems lost on a lot of people.

I find Type O Negative very funny. And Cradle of Filth. I've got no proof, but I'm certain Cradle are a joke, but not in a taking the piss way, but a really sophisticated one that makes me a special person for noticing it.
