That exact wording would likely let the uset write \lyricmode \markup
... which
will not be helpful.  So perhaps rather

"a markup here would require to be in \\lyricmode"

Or at least "unexpected markup (outside of \\lyricmode)" instead of
"unexpected markup (without \\lyricmode)".  Yes, this conflates command
and mode, but that is more likely to give the user a hint as to what is
wrong as the current message does ("Lyric mode" does not help much with
diagnosing what is wrong with \new Lyrics { Hello }).
