Get off! It's on fire! (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

alight

I believe this is a double definition.

'get off' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'on fire' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

'it's' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for alight that I've seen before include "Land; burning" , "Descend from vehicle" , "in flames" , "Brilliant" , "Land, come down" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard and The Globe and Mail.
