This is a special case since \markup "blah" returns a string rather
than a markup (using simple_string ()).  It works if you wrap the
string in braces:

mmm = \markup  { "blah" }

\mmm

If you want something similar for \markuplines, all you need is a
similar rule to the one for MARKUP_IDENTIFIER in full_markup:

full_markup_list:
        MARKUPLINES_IDENTIFIER {
                $$ = $1;
        }
        | MARKUPLINES
                { PARSER->lexer_->push_markup_state (); }
        markup_list {
                $$ = $3;
                PARSER->lexer_->pop_state ();
        }
        ;
