It's a character from the ca. 1973 "music video-movie" entitled Whatever Happened to Vileness Fats?" by The Residents - arguably music's most bizarre creation:

PLOT LINE EXCERPT: "Vileness Flats is being threatened by the Atomic Shopping Carts, armoured carts with huge drills on the front (the props were "borrowed" from a local Safeway). A Bridge keeps the Shopping Carts away, but the villagers also hire the Berry Boy twins, a pair of Siamese twin tag-team wrestlers named Arf & Omega, to protect them. The twins fight off the Carts, saving Vileness Flats, and are honoured with a banquet. The mayor thanks the pair and Steve, Vileness Flats' religious leader, gives a long, boring speech. The twins heckle him, throwing their dinner (giant broccoli) at him and he stomps off, depressed"
... yes, the word "strange" does not do this justice. For the record, I have never seen the film although at one time I did own the soundtrack.
