I listen mostly to Destination Doo-wop for oldies radio, and on their program Gary’s Oldies Vault you’ll hear mixed in with the other oldies a fair number of novelty songs that you may never have heard of. Here’s some that I first learned about there:
Ba-cha-ca-loop (Paul Revere’s Horse) - Lou Monte
Dinner with Drac (Part 1) - John Zacherle
The Thing - Phil Harris
Bird on my Head - Ross Bagdasarian (David Seville)
Highway Patrol - Junior Brown

How Do You Do Mouth & MacNeal (warning: creepy ventriloquist dummy!)
I remember this song, never saw the video. That is one big bowl of WTF.
My favorite part is when Hagar the Horrible gives the dummy a glass of water to drink. I am quite certain he did not do it ironically.
mmm
“Ahab the Arab”, by Ray Stevens
“Charlie Brown”, by the Coasters
Well, it he did say it was a Mannfred Mann song, so he probably didn’t feel like repeating himself…
Just what I was going to say. This week I heard “Skinny Legs and All” by Joe Tex.
This song doesn’t fit the category of silly, but if you’re looking for a big bowl of WTF, check out the video.
Come for the circus folk, stay for the flamethrowers.
Another big bowl of WTF:Total Eclipse Of The Heart.
The literal video version makes more sense. 
In the beginning - where she starts singing - isnt that the guy from Game of Thrones?
It’s much better with the volume off.
A couple of bird-related silly oldies:
“May the Bird of Paradise Fly Up your Nose” by Little Jimmy Dickens
“Disco Duck” by Rick Dees and His Cast of Idiots. (There are a number of interesting videos of this song out there.)
Then there’s “Surfin’ Bird” by the Trashmen, but I think that might get more airplay. (This clip, from American Bandstand, is certainly one of the stranger musical segments of early-60s pop… the vocalist, sans band or anyone else, lip-synching the entire song.)
Kankakee’s WVLI still plays most of the songs in this thread. Check out their audio stream.
Peter Dinklage? Maybe – the mouth and jaw look like him. IMDB says he was in a Pat Benatar music vid but does not mention Quarterflash.
I can’t believe I haven’t seen this one yet:
“Who Put the Bomp (in the Bomp-she-bomp-she-bomp)”
How about “Tiptoe through the Tulips”…
Lord, there were a million of 'em, weren’t there?
“The Bird” by Jerry Reed
“Shriner’s Convention” - Ray Stevens (and a ton of others: “Erik the Awful,” “It’s Me Again, Margaret,” etc., etc., etc…)
Speaking of Ray Stevens, my favorite one is I Need Your Help, Barry Manilow.
Let’s see, Top 40 music of the era that would bring me back to my childhood or early years when I couldn’t avoid hearing them a gazillion times, yet never hear on the “oldies” radio station today…
The disco version of the theme to Star Wars
“Pac-Man Fever” by … ?
“Pop Musik” by M
“Jam On It” by Newcleus
For a couple of weeks in 1972, you couldn’t turn on a radio without hearing “Convention '72” by The Delegates. For a couple of months in 1975, you couldn’t turn on a radio without hearing “Mister Jaws”.
I was heartily sick of them at the time, but now I kind of miss them. I haven’t heard either since they dropped off the charts.
As an added bonus, the former included the “Gotta Find a Woman” chant from the funk single “Troglodyte (Cave Man)”, and I can’t remember the last time I heard it, either.
“Teddy Bear” by Red Sovine.
“Convoy” by C. W. McCall.
(Maybe they play these all the time on some C&W stations, but I haven’t heard them in a long while.)
This song immediately came to mind when I read the OP. I’m not sure how much airplay it got when it was new, but I’ve only heard it on the radio once and I immediately loved it (it was on a mainstream oldies station in Austin, TX about 10 years ago). I don’t know if this is the original (I doubt it) but it’s the version I heard:
Fendermen - Muleskinner Blues (“Send that buck-buck-bucket on down!”)
