i have not used token look ahead very much so I am fuzzy about this.
but i think LT(1) looks ahead 1 token without actually consuming any
token. so after your predicate the token stream is still positioned at
the "funny" token so you need to consume it before the call_funny_parse.
something like (very much untested!!!)
start
: {input.LT(1).getText().equals("funny")}? TOKEN call_funny_parse
| {input.LT(1).getText().equals("serious")}? TOKEN call_serious_parse
| /* whatever is appropriate if neither funny nor serious is present*/
;
hope this helps...
