Crossword Genius

Fizz right up (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

astir

'up' is the definition.
(I know that up can be written as astir)

'fizz right' is the wordplay.
'fizz' becomes 'asti'.
'right' becomes 'r' (abbreviation).
'asti'+'r'='ASTIR'

(Other definitions for astir that I've seen before include "Starting to move" , "Up and about -- is art (anag)" , "In motion - out of bed" , "Moving; out of bed" , "Excitedly moving" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
