Kiss - Flaming Youth Lyrics
Whoo yeah
My parents think I'm crazy and they hate the things I do
I'm stupid and I'm lazy, man, if they only knew
How flaming youth will set the world on fire
My uniform is leather, and my power is my age
I'm gettin' it together to break out of my cage
'Cause flaming youth will set the world on fire
Flaming youth will set the world on fire
Flaming youth, our flag is flying higher and higher and higher
Flaming youth will set the world on fire
Flaming youth will set the world on fire
Flaming youth will set the world on fire
Flaming youth will set the world on fire
Flaming youth, our flag is flying higher and higher
And higher and higher and higher and higher and higher

Kiss Flaming Youth Comments
My theme song when I lived with my parents in Houston, Texas in the 70's.
When I was a teen I thought it was called "Blaming you".
A flaming turd will set your ass on fire! Fire, fire, and fire!!!
I love the whole album. I was like 8 when it came out.
This song is great. Remember as a kid. Loved it!
@ Tony Dattoli……….. KISS ARMY BRO...……….KISS ARMY!!
I will be 117 years old and still be the 5 year old rocking to kiss's debut album. Flaming Youth is a timeless jam. My chloroforms always dig this one.
since Kindergarten '76!!!!!! Saw my first necked girl that year too. :-)

My very first kiss cd I got on Christmas in middle school and still have still amazing and love every song on it long live KISS
forever grateful I got to see kiss live, aug 3 2015🤪🤪🤪. I’m also a teenager and kiss is my favourite band
they shouldve let ace do the solo on this and sweet pain. they wouldve been 1000x better
Ace and Ezrin did not get along, but Bob brought out the king that is Frehley.
Days Of Innocence, Curiosity And Magic.
.
This is my fav song of kiss
Timeless
with my cousin Fernando 1979
To me it has always been funny how fans complained about the "pop albums" Dynasty and Unmasked, when in reality Kiss had always leaned towards this kind of soft rock.
I mean, it doesn´t get much "poppier" than this song, does it?
For further confirmation, just listen to Kissin` time, Main Line, Coming Home, Rock and Roll all Nite, Great expectations, Beth, Hard Luck Woman, Tomorrow and Tonight ..
Who would call any of those songs Hard Rock??
I still have this album
My uniform is Leather and my Power is my age...……..53
KISS Destroyer is a masterpiece
I bought this album in 1976, I was 13 years old. This album was my whole world, seriously.
Destroyer is a manifesto
Nice. Fur.immer.kiss.aus.deutschland♥
Wont get fool again....influenced
It bothers me to say that KISS was a bunch of posers....
These songs were GREAT, and it seemed like everyone at the time thought so....
Somewhere along the way it became more 'cool' to NOT like KISS.....
DICK WAGNER on LEAD GUITAR!! Awesome!!
Background should of been lot better.For a great album cover,sorry artists,you suck.ITS CALLED COLOR AND SHADING.
My Album cover I drew makes the original look like shit.ITS ALL IN THE COLORING AND SHADING.
Now,this is a great KISS song.
I'm stupid and I'm lazy.
Can never get enough of the beginning part.
Retro G, Yeah I love how this song starts off.
Another one of my all-time favorites.
One of the best album experiences ever.
Second album I ever purchased. I was 9, mom rolled her eyes. Destroyer remains the greatest “complete” hard rock and roll album from the first second to the final second of play in my heart.
THE Absolute best Kiss album ever made
Catman and Ace is best
But without Paul Kiss
Would never existed flaming youth
My Youth 🤘🏻
Paul, and his coming out of the closet anthem.

It's hard to explain how totally enthralled I was with this band at age 13. The magic was real..still is.
I'm stupid & i'm lazy
Man if they only knew😆
Magical times being into KISS🐶🏴
Bello il testo!!!
I'm 51 and still listening to "the hottest band in the world."
Hey, you wanted the best, you got the best.
Nero's kiss favourite album!
Its a legend 😊
Destroyer and Kiss Alive I, two classic rock albums for the ages. Kiss was never better than those two monster records.
100% Agreed!
So much Bob Ezrin influence it's not funny. Very similar to great Alice Cooper albums of the same era. I mean this could have been an Alice Cooper song (Department of Youth anyone?). Bob Ezrin really had a great streak of producing/ song writing
We were flaming youth !!
The good oL dAyS!🎸🎶🥁🍺🍻🍺🍻🍺🍻🍺🍻🍺🎵🎶👍
Destroyer was a masterpiece of music from beginning to end 🤘🤘🤘
You could almost say Destroyer was their breakout album although the first three albums were great, '76, '77, '78 Kiss was untouchable in rock.
Love this song as well!!! Makes me feel like I'm back in the 1970's as a kid again!!!
Joe Pesci calls this song "Flaming Yutes" ala "My Cousin Vinny"
bet everyone was a flamin youth in there days i know i was
🤘🏻
Cuz flaming youth or set the world on fire
Paul Stanley's voice on both "Destroyer" & "Rock And Roll Over" is PRICELESS!
Hands down, the two BEST recordings of his voice - EVER! 1976 was his year!
Kriss Delaney I strongly disagree. His voice on I'll fight hell to hold you makes this sound like a nursery rhyme.
Favorite kiss love
Love love love love kiss kiss yes yes 👹👹👹👹👹😁😁😁
Was that solo made by Ace or Dick Wagner?
Flaming youth
this is like a cassete tape listening to this virsion is.
This had to be my anthem from age 14 through 20 hahaha! It’s still a great song!
I have a cloth wall hang of "Destroyer" hanging in the spare room in my house, Back in the '70s I had a foil "Destroyer" poster. Destroyer and Alive! are the two best albums by Kiss, Flaming Youth is a very underrated song off Destroyer that I think is one of the best on that album!!
If you’re into 70’s rock, check out GLITTER DOGS. New music!
https://youtu.be/_C_qvJ3mVec
Good to hear actual instruments!
By mid 90s young people lost interest in music. When I was a kid, music not just Metal and Rock but music was really important!
Best song and the most important song Kiss Ever fu**ing made. The Sound of teen Seventies debauchery. Timeless.
Rock on guys
Great tune!
loved it when I was six now I'm nine
Amazing song
Love 💋 💋 kiss
first symphonic song hear the backsound
paul stanley-vocal
gene simmons-bass
dick wagner-lead guitar
peter criss-drum
Juan K Borges this id ace. Wagner plays on sweet pain
bernabas73
Dick Wagner for sure!
Destroyer and creatures of the night ...the best kiss albuns
They played this song last night at Casino Rama and they were awesome. They were in the Fireside lounge afterward and saw Tommy Thayer at breakfast.
herd this song live in stockholm this year and it was Amazing!
Best destroyer album ever
Saw them LATE 74 EARLY 75 FOR THE DESTROYER TOUR ME and KISS go way back
Sci-Fi Ninja Theater destroyer is from 76
The album was just released I took it over to my grandma's house at put on my earphones and listen to this album and it blew my mind I had the albums before it but this album was crazy
pure genius
The first verse of this song sums up my entire existence from 1978 thru 1983.
You are showing your age Perry. Destroyer came out in 1976. But it, like all KISS albums, is good. I think Unmasked after losing Shandi & Talk To me is one of their best along with The Elder and Sonic Boom is one of their worst but even Sonic Boom has its moments. Monster is very good. .
Is peter criss singing or is it Paul Stanley?
Another of many underrated, under played, and understood songs from kiss. Perhaps their visual image of make up etc turned many away.
Probably an obvious comment but this sounds like an ozzy song.
its sounds like an Alice Cooper song (as well)
Scruffy P but it almost has the vibe and style of a Who song.
What... seriously? You drunk, man!
Flaming Youth ....Will Set The World On Fire.. is that same as Heaven's On Fire? hehe
Fucking great album
I was 5 Yrs old when i first heard this. This is the best band to ever ROCK any stage. Seen them LIVE 30+ times. Sad to say i havent bothered to see their show for over 6 yrs. Its too much of the same thing. Take off the makeup and costumes and id be the first one to buy a ticket.
This is my first Kiss album. It still kicks ass. Guitar solo is funky fresh my friends.
kiss destroyer brought me here check it out......
Love the lyrics & how it empowers gay teens:
My Parents think i'm crazy
Because i'm not like other boys
They call me stupid & lazy
It's like they think i made this choice
Flaming youth
Fighting this internal desire
Flaming youth
Together we can inspire
Flaming youth
Our message will never tire
Flaming youth
Your support will take us higher, higher & higher
My sister has a girlfriend
And my parents won't defend her
My brother ignores our family
Because my cousin is transgender
Flaming youth
don't be so hateful
I got my copy.
holy smokes!
I'm getting it together, to break out of my cage!
My favorite Kiss album
Nothing underrated with this album or song. One of the greatest of all time.
Right,bro..!!
Favorite KISS song ever! Glad I bought Destroyer when it came out. Still one of the greatest albums ever. Totally underrated.
Scott Binns It’s legal to steal from your own band. Ever notice that the riffs on “Satisfaction” and “Jumping Jack Flash “ are similar as well. Keith liked to rearrange his own stuff. You are right, the riffs sound similar.
Perry Kane yes but it was the last kiss album before they went commercial!
I recall it wasnt underrated...it was the first overrated album.... and it was great. KISS in the big leagues....and downfall....
@Lukas Skrypetz I guess he means underrated in regards to it's artistic merit, rather than popularity.
Same. This album is 🔥
My parents think I'm crazy....
+z zed Man, if they only knew!
+Dr. Awkward
Nope.. and its ... and they hate
the things I do...lolz
Looooove this song. Its sad I never saw this on live show. I went see live KISS 15 times all in Australia but knowing this Flaming Youth is my part favourite.
For me, DESTROYER is the BEST KISS RECORD. This will sound very corny, BUT, that record is MAGICAL for me because it brings back many fantastic memories as a kid in the 70's buying KISS magazines, listening to their records all during summer vacation, etc. Seventies KISS in general was THE BEST. THE 80'S for me, Creatures Of The Night was IT!
collecting kiss cards!!!
@bill williams
YES! I am kicking myself for not storing my kiss cards well. I have lost most of them since i had them as a kid. All that is left are 4-5 of them, and they're all dog eared or have marker, pen stains on them
+Rik Dusk +bill williams Yup, my memories exactly. Kiss was quite the spectacle. We were just about convinced they were super-human, or perhaps weren't human at all, it was so much fun. And no one today, who didn't live through it, can understand how fun the mystery of Kiss was. To have this incredible brand they created along with really great music...well...there's never been anything like it and never will be again. Destroyer was my first album as a kid, and a kid couldn't be much more fortunate. It was their first album where the production quality was fixed and the sound was new and awesome.
Perfect...
Kiss forever!
My Favorite KISS song! Always will be!
