About this song
"Jumpsuit" is the lead single from twenty one pilots' fifth album, Trench. It was set to premiere on US radio stations at 8:30am EST but was instead released 47 minutes earlier on iTunes and the band's YouTube channel. Josh Dun said in an interview with BBC Radio 1 that work on the song started near the end of the Emotional Roadshow tour, with Tyler Joseph coming up with the bass riff and playing it at sound checks.
What it's about
The song continues the story of Dema, a fictional walled city, and the escape attempts of Clancy, as laid out on the dmaorg website that accompanies the album. Its title refers to a yellow jumpsuit used to avoid detection by the bishops who oversee Dema, since they cannot see the color yellow.
