The Offspring, The Beastie Boys, Van Halen w/DLR, and the B52s. Are there other bands that rock, but are often silly/goofy and funny? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

The Who were kinda silly (eg: Boris the Spider) in their early years.

This is a great answer. They not only have a couple of goofy songs like Boris but also let their goofball personalities shine like on the album (The Who Sell Out?) that has the little ad jingles and the cover with Townsend using a giant deodorant stick and Daltrey in a bathtub full of baked beans.
