Two of the oddest songs I thought of right off the top of my head are both by ZZ Top (my favorite band):

"Ten Foot Pole" and "Heaven, Hell or Houston"

Their "Manic Mechanic" is mighty weird, too.

...but I love them all!

Bloodrock, 1971. A great tune to scare the hell out of the candy thieves with on Halloween!

The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band had some very strange songs such as:My Pink Half Of The Drainpipe,King Of Scurf,Rhinocratic Oaths,We Are Normal,Labio Dental Fricative,Trouser Press,Noises For The Leg and the list goes on.Then there's Neil Innes with:How Sweet To Be An Idiot and Viv Stanshell's hilarious how the Tiger Got Its Spots and last but not least Love Without Sound and My Game of Loving by White Noise from their Electrical Storm Album the latter of which has a recording of an orgy in the middle of it,which is very off putting as it is a wonderful song melodically.BTW I forgot Slush by The Bonzos whiich is comprised of organ and strings and is an absolutely beautiful melody along the lines of Whiter Shade Of Pale or something that Bach would write but about 1/2 minute it there's a loop of maniacal laughter dubbed in which needless to say ruins the beauty of the song.

Maybe The Tubes' "What Do You Want From Life" would be a close second.
