catch a fire

Catch a fire was Bob Marley and the Wailer's debut album for Island Records. Catching a fire does not mean smoking pot. The fire refers to the fires of hell, and the Marley song tells slavedrivers to catch a fire, or go to hell.

Slavedriver, your table has turned, catch a fire, you're gonna get burned

Catch fire

A more polite way of saying "go to hell".

Amy: You can't do anything right

Jenna: go catch fire!

Amy: I won't catch fire; I'm not the one who stole the money from Todd

Jenna: You'll catch fire alright; you helped me steal it.

Todd: Catch fire, you thief!
