I have noticed a tendency for the Rolling Stones to get rather silly. I mean, there are few songwriters out there who can ham it up like Mick and Keith (Although Dylan has his moments). In no particular order, the Stones songs that always make me laugh are:
1) Far away eyes - "Thank you Lord!"
2) You don't have to mean it- How anyone could listen to this song and not laugh is beyond me
3) Let it Bleed - can you say campy?
4) Dear Doctor - "For the gal I'm to marry is a four legged sow"
5) Some Girls - "I just don't have that much jam!!!"
Well, that's my list. What do you guys think are the funniest Stones songs? |

When the Whip Comes Down- "I was a fag in New York, I was gay in LA
Turd on the Run- "Fell down to my knees and i hung onto your pants, but you just kept on runnin' and they came off in my hands"
Coming Down Again- "Stick my tongue in someone else's pie"
Short and Curlies- probably the whole song. great tongue in cheek filler! |

Also in Whip: "When the shit hits the fan I'll be sitting on the can"
Also in CDA: "You turned green, and tried to make me cry."
Respectable "Your the queen of porn, easist lay on the White House lawn."
The entire ER album. |

Brand New Car - Funny because a fifty year old wrote it and it's juvenile enough to have been written by someone that's not old enough to drive yet. |

The Stones are the funniest rock band ever which is exactly why I love the Stones. Jokes and wit permeate all their best tracks but here's a few lines I really love:
High and Dry ("Lucky that I didn't have any love towards her/next time I'll make sure the girl is much poorer")
Factory Girl ("Waiting for a girl and her knees are much too fat/Waiting for a girl who wears scarves instead of hats/
Her zipper's broke down the back")
Honky Tonk Women (Sailors in Paris, roses, hay fever, toughassed ginsoaked barroom queens carrying skinny ass Mick Jagger over their shoulders and up the stairs . . . perfection)
If You Can't Rock Me ("I'm not so green but I'm feeling so fresh")(not to mention the hooker working roughish trade)
Starfucker live ("Jimmy Page was all the rage/I could not see the reason why" is the greatest summation of the 70s ever)
Not to mention Cops and Robbers, She's So Cold, Need a Yellow Cab, most songs mentioned here already, etc etc amen |

once you're fan enough to apply a good gnosis of Mick & Keith to their music, a good 75% of it can be funny.

DOWNTOWN SUZIE:
Got the Monday mornin' blues (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Monday wasn't really real (Yeah, yeah)
Oh, lying on a naked bed (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
With an Alka Seltzer head (Yeah, yeah)
FIJI JIM/GIN:
Better watch out for the Fiji Gin, come-up and spend the day
Come on and bring your wah-wah pedal, then let's go on stage
Ronnie brought about, 50,000 kids, and then slipped out in the rain
Fell from the beat to the 25th floor, white girls go insane, eeeh
FAMILY:
Here comes the girl, she's got her head screwed on
But it ain't screwed on right
Her ambition is to be a prostitute
But the breaks just weren't right
What exactly's gonna happen, tell me
When her father finds out
That his virgin daughter has bordello dreams
And that he's the one she wants to try out
Yeah
