Cake.

Have you considered working in stand-up comedy?

I'm going to put my neck on the chopping block and suggest the Beach Boys. Sure, the lyrics are simple, but that's half the fun: You actually know what the hell they're talking about at first listen. There's also the fact that Brian Wilson was a very skilled composer and could have two or three different things going at once, all of them harmonizing with not only themselves but each other.
Typhlosis:
KimJongSick, I'm going to have to agree with you. The quality with which their lyrics and music blended, plus the simple fun (and 'nostaglia' of better times) you mentioned are quite evident in the Beach Boys.
btw: nothing wrong with Cake if you like a short skirt and a looooonnnnnngggggggg jack-et

Does this mean you do? Can you explain it to me?
The Cheesinator:
Some songs by Pavement (Stephen Malkmus and everyone else in the band, i don't know their names), or the Russian Futurists (Which is just Matthew Adam Hart, really). They're all pleasant to recite. Plus Lennon/McCartney. I could probably think of more when pressed.
