I don't know if its 'silly' but Health runs a phone number, a discord, and subjects Johnny to a bunch of miserable shit for laughs I guess.
Nerf Herder
No More Kings
Electric Callboy are very silly and produce excellent videos.
JBO, if you understand German.
Thank You Scientist are seriously talented musicians who make very complex music, but don't take themselves seriously and have fun with their performances.
Them being ska punk makes it an easy pick, but Russkaja has great covers and original songs.

Until you listen harder.
Estradasphere and Ween pop to mind
Ween, Dead Milkmen, Gwar, Nomeansno, Hansen Brothers, Pink n Brown, Jesus Lizard, Moistboyz, Stormtroopers of Death.
Devin Townsend
Here's one you never heard of - Gung Ho by Shaka Ponk

Spinal tap
Maybe Beck? Queβ Onda Guero always makes me giggle.
And, a bit of a different genre but Father John Mistyβs songs are sarcastic and often nonsensical. They sound all romantic and dreamy but the lyrics donβt always match the vibe.
Angus McSix (formerly Angus McFife of Gloryhammer) is a hoot.
Somebody already recommended Primus so I have to come up with backup. And that is:
- Nuclear Power Trio
- Carnival in Coal
- Igorrr
Future Idiots.
Patent Pending.
How silly are you looking for? It doesn't get sillier than We Ran Out Of CD Space by PsychoStick... or anything else by psychostick. But there's also Ninja Sex Party, Wolves of Glendale, First of October (listen to Ravioli).
While not outright comedy, there's a humor to Falling for Me by Parker the Bandit and It's Okay to Punch Nazis by Cheap Perfume
Kendall Street Company
Macklemore
The Aquabats
The Presidents of the United States of America fit the bill
