"hurry up." From "Random House Historical Dictionary of American Slang,Volume 1,A-G" by J.E.Lighter,Random House,New York,1994.And since we're on the topic of "fire." Remember when cartoon character Yosemite Sam's butt caught on fire.He ran around yelling,"Fire in the hatch!My biscuits are burning!" A fond childhood memory.
