One, two, three, yeah
Ah, ah
Keep your bliss, there's nothing wrong with this, no (Wrong with this, no)
Ah-ah-ah-ah, yeah, whoo-ooh
Keep your bliss, there's nothing wrong with this, no (Wrong with this, no)
[Verse 1]
Keep your sunny days, leave us in the rain
Tie strings to our hands and feet to rain on your parade
You can have the weekends, we will live between them
Keep your pills, save your breath, and don't ever forget
[Chorus]
Get out of our way, we're moving sideways
Welcome to Mulberry Street, yeah
So move out of our way, we're pushing sideways
Keep sidewalk under your feet
[Verse 2]
Ain't no sunny skies 'til you finally realize
That evеrybody relies on synthetic highs (Synthеtic highs)
They find someone to prescribe
Keep your bliss, there's nothing wrong with this
We just want to feel it all
Keep your pills, save your breath, and don't ever forget
Get out of our way, we're moving sideways
Welcome to Mulberry Street, yeah
So move out of our way, we're pushing sideways
Keep sidewalk under your feet
(Ain't no sunny skies…)
[Bridge]
(Ah-ah-ah-ah)
When times aren't the best and I'm on the edge
I'll listen for a song in the distance
Mulberry Street, so good to see you
Mulberry Street, so good to see you
Mulberry Street, so good to see you
Mulberry Street
And don't ever forget
[Chorus]
Get out of our way, we're moving sideways
Welcome to Mulberry Street, yeah
So move out of our way, we're pushing sideways (Sideways)
Keep sidewalk under your feet (Yeah, ooh) (Keep your sunny days)
Get out of our way, we're moving sideways (We're moving sideways)
Welcome to Mulberry Street (Yeah, so good to see you)
So move out of our way (So good, so good), we're pushing sideways
Keep sidewalk under your feet (Mulberry Street, so good to see you)

Tyler Joseph:
“Mulberry Street” for me… there was a street in New York City where Little Italy is, and the first time that I ever kind of left Ohio. My manager, at the time, we had some meetings with like, record labels and stuff and it was just a classic kid going to the big city moment… He’d lived in New York City for a few years in the past and so he knew where he was going. So he took Josh and I, and a couple of friends of mine that are still kind of touring with us and creating with us and stuff. He took us to Little Italy and we had this, you know, it was just like this, ‘I’ve never felt more out of place in my life being in New York City.’ Eat at some, you know, like we’re gonna go get some pizza. ‘This isn’t the pizza I’m used to.’ You know, just something that simple, kind of really reminding you that you’re not home anymore. And so, this song to me was like, very, I wanted to imagine that feeling again.
