Hmm, I'm not sure exactly what qualifies as a comedy song, but three really funny ones from the top of my head:
"Uncle F*cka" by South Park
"Masturbater" by Tom Green?, parody of "Macarena"
"(Let's Go) Smoke Some Pot" by Dash Rip Rock, parody of "At The Hop"
"There's 'sposed to be some words here but I forgot'em cause I smoked too much pot" - lol.

"Fish Heads" Barnes & Barnes
I went to see a Dr. Demento show at Caltech in Pasadena in 1997, and that was one of the goofy songs they played.
I also enjoy:
"Shaving Cream" by Benny Bell
"Holy (Bleep), It's Christmas" (I forget the artist name)
...among others! :D

Roy "Chubby" Brown - "Who the F*ahem*k is Alice?" (and dozens of other parodies of Smokie's schmaltzy-70s dreck "Livin' Next Door To Alice")
John Valby - aaw hell, do I have to choose? Dozens of renditions of "Gang Bang", "Yo Ho", "Who Gives a F*bleep*k?", "Supercalifragilistic", "Purple People Eater", at least 20 Christmas carol parodies...
Nope, I can't choose. Just see Valby, live and in concert, once before you die.

Adam Sandler's "Hanukkah Song"...would that be classified as a "comedy" song? I'm sure "Ode To My Car" would. :D ;D

Robin Williams' "Grim Rapper" Bastard stole my idea, and I could never bring myself to betray his glorious honour.
Monty Python's "Every Sperm Is Sacred" -classic.
Weird Al's "Party At The Leper Colony" -I sit in awe at how many puns go straight over everyone else's heads before the first verse has even finished.
Tenacious D's "F*** Her Gently" -man, they are honestly some talented rock players, and the ironic tone of this song is brilliant.
Blink 182's "What's My Age Again?" -Yay parody film clips!
Kim Jong Il's "I'm Ronery" aaaand whack me down for the whole Bigger, Longer and Uncut album. It aint my favourite movie of all time fer nuthin'!

(this is the "Moby Dick" of comedy songs)
EXISTENTIAL BLUES by Tom "T Bone" Stankus
Hey, man, what are you really into, huh?
The elusive butterfly has just tip-toed past my door.
My buddy likes the Yankees; she says "Hey, T-Bone, what's the score?"
And I say, "Well, Reggie got 1 in 1 in 3, and 25 is 6 to 4."
Is the left-wing really pinko? Colonel Sanders, what a bore!
You ask so many questions, what answers should I choose?
Is this schizoid paranoia, or just existential blues?
The amenities of life have been chasing my soul,
And my mind is transcendental, and I'm losing all control,
And I'm sinking in the quagmire of illusions and Thoreau,
I cry out, "My name is T-Bone!" as a hound dog digs a hole.
You ask so many questions, what answers should I choose?
Is this Plato's heebie-jeebies, or just existential blues?
Sailing, sailing, what is 'lusion? What is tru-ue?
Sailing, sailing, over the existential blues.
God bless America, and Old Glory too!
May she always wave o'er us with the red, white, and existential
blues!
Hey, ba-ba-de-ba-ba-da-ba-da-da,
Ba-de-bom-ba-de-bom--ba-ding-a-ding-ding ding-existential blues.
Hey, you can do what you want but lay off my existential blues!
My blue suede existential blues!
I was on a quest!
To dream the impossible dream.
Walking down the road one day, doo-dah, doo-dah,
I was walking down the road, I was looking for the truth of life,
When I came across all these little people, little people
Little people all around me.
They looked up at me and said, "Hey, mister, are you tall?"
I said, "Yes, I'm tall, but who are you weird little whiners?"
And they looked up at me with their big, red, bloodshot eyes and
said:
We are the lollipop kids, the lollipop kids,
The lollipop kids.
We are the lollipop kids!
And we'd like to welcome you to Munchkinland!
I said, "Hey! Hey, weird little whiners, I am on a quest
To dream the impossible dream.
Walking down the road one day, doo-dah, doo-dah,
I said, "Hey kids, I'm looking for the truth of life.
Where do I go, who do I see?"
They said, "Slow down, mister, in order to find the truth of life,
one must see THE WIZARD!"
I said, "THE WIZARD? Well, where does this wizard, old wise one,
live?"
They said, "You see the big, green, glow-in-the-dark house up on the
hill?"
I said, "Yes, I see the big, green, glow-in-the-dark house up on the
hill.
There's a big, dark forest between me and the big, green,
glow-in-the-dark house up on the hill.
And a little old lady on a Hoover vacuum cleaner going
'I'll get you, my little pretty, and your little dog, Toto, too!'.
I don't even have a little dog, Toto."
Such predicaments, I must forge ahead!
To dream the impossible dream.
Walking down the road one day, doo-dah, doo-dah.
I must find the truth of life.
I said, "But you know, kids, I can handle a big, green, glow-in-the-
dark house
up on the hill, I can handle a darn forest, I can handle the little
old lady,
But that's a very strange road you're sending me down!
I've seen yellow stripes in the middle of a road before, but kids,
uh, never quite that wide!"
All right, tighten your shorts pilgrim, and sing like da Duke.
Follow the yellow brick road (Come on)
Follow the yellow brick road (Everybody sing)
Follow, follow, follow, follow,
Follow the yellow brick road
If ever a wonderful wiz there was,
The Wizard of Oz is one because,
Because, because, because, because, because,
Because of the wonderful things he does!
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, ha-ha!
We're off to see the wizard,
The wonderful Wizard of Oz!
Wellllll, I got a little bit tired of
Walking down the road one day, doo-dah, doo-dah.
I got a little bit tired of walking down this old blinding yellow
road,
So pulled my little tired old body off to a little rest area
And lo and behold there's a little field of little red flowers out
there,
And they, heh, smelled so good. Whoa.
I was gettin' pretty tired and they smelled so good, and I
Figured, well, I'll just stretch out in this little field of
POPPIES! POPPIES! POPPIES! poppies!
(Cough)
Hey, what a strange dream, man!
The little flowers, they smell awfully good, and I was pretty tired.
The old wizard's just gonna have to wait, man, because I'm just gonna
Stretch out again in the little field of
POPPIES! POPPIES! POPPIES!
OH GOD! OH GOD! OH GOD!
Dorothy! Dorothy! Dorothy!
(SNIFFFFFFF)
DOROTHY! DOROTHY! DOROTHY!
....confidence in herself, man.
Along came this old man in a green El Dorado II, screeched to a halt,
A little short man with a big red nose
Toking a bottle of Yukon Jack
Strolled up to me and said, "Hey, son."
I said, "Old man, don't bother me. POPPIES, MMMMMMMMM!"
He said, "T-Bone!"
I said, "Wait a minute, this old man knows my name, he must be
THE WIZARD!"
He must be the Wizard,
The Wizard of Oz.
Why have you come to haunt me?
Oh, Wizard of Oz.
I said, "Oh, Wizard, old wise one, I have been on a quest
To dream the impossible dream
Walking down the road one day, doo-dah, doo-dah
And I met these little people
We are the lollipop kids, the lollipop kids, the lollipop kids,
Follow the yellow brick road
Follow, follow, follow
I got tired
POPPIES! POPPIES!
Little old man, I've been through hell!"
He said, "Hey, son, slow down, relax."
I said, "But, wizard, old wise one, I have come so far to find
the truth of life!"
He says, "Hey, son, slow down, relax."
He said, "To tell you the truth, son..."
I said, "Wizard, that's what I've come to find is the truth."
He said, "No, no, no, son, you've got me all wrong. Heh heh.
To tell you the truth, son...uh...how can I tell you this? Uh...
I've been in this field of poppies a long time myself, and I've come
to find, son, that the only truth in life is right here in this
bottle."
I said, "Wizard!"
He said, "No, truly, son. In fact, I'd rather have this bottle in
front of me than A FRONTAL LOBOTOMY!"
How profound, Wizard!
Some girl with psychic power, she said, "T-Bone, what's your sign?"
I blink and answer, "Neon!" I thought I'd blow her mind.
She's reading Moby Dick by some fruitcake named Herman,
She's chomping on a knockwurst, was the duchess really German?
You ask so many questions, what answers should I choose?
Is this really Butte, Montana, or just existential blues?
Really Butte, Montana?
Is this Plato's heebie-jeebies?
Is this schizoid paranoia?
(Star Trek-like sound effects)
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, existential blu-uu-uuuuu-ues!

The songs from The Goons in the 50s.
Ying Tong Song
I'm Walking Backwards For Christmas
Bluebottle Blues
Unchained Melody
I was lucky to find the import Cd with these tracks not too long ago. Especially love "Ying Tong" for the surreal, inexplicable rocket bombs! Too bad the CD has filler from the Goons' bland musical performers to take up the rest of the space.

Weird Al Yankovic - Ebay (Parody of BSB's I Want It That Way)
Lasagne - (Parody of La Bamba, don't know who sings the parody)
The Llama Song
The Muppets - Manah Manah
Benny Hill - Ernie (The Fastest milkman In The West)
Spitting Image - Chicken Song
Another song that is quite funny is the SpongeBob SquarePants theme song:
Are you ready, kids?
Aye aye, Captain!
I can't hear you!
Aye aye, Captain!
Oooohhh!
Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?
Spongebob SquarePants!
Absorbent and yellow and pourous is he,
SpongeBob SquarePants!
If nautical nonsense be something you wish!
SpongeBob SquarePants!
Then drop on the deck and flop like a fish!
SpongeBob SquarePants!

SpongeBob SquarePants (X3)

Partially that, alternating with the unpredictable jolt one gets from hearing a well-placed bleep, bloop, or Brzzzz! Demento's producers often use very creative sounds!
