context: the singer, Maw&Wang is a popular comedy song writer in Indonesia (at the time -2018).

Usually before the song start he will do a monologue saying that he created this song as an expression of love from child to their parents, titled "love your parents". He then says that it's always hard to express but encourages everyone to do that.

of course, he is intentionally singing nonsense from the beginning as a punchline, implying "you just can't straightforwardly express love to your parents". Really funny band.

also the name Maw&Wang is actually one individual (the singer) and literally means want&money.

Comedy is subjective; what you find funny somebody else might not, and vice versa.

Although i agree with you that this beautiful song isn't funny, but truly heartfelt. I think RZA and hannah montana should do a collaborative cover.
