You didn't say exactly what you typed at it, but:

Your flex lexer lacks actions for many possible input characters,
notably spaces.  I seem to recall that the default action in
such cases is to print the character on stdout.

The grammar lacks any way to deal with any input after the
first newline.  Anything except EOF will draw a syntax error.
