Out of bed, outfit's put out (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

upset

'put out' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'out of bed outfit's' is the wordplay.
'out of bed' becomes 'up' ('up' can be a synonym of 'out of bed').
'outfit' becomes 'set' (setting is a kind of outfiting).
'up'+'set'='UPSET'

(Other definitions for upset that I've seen before include "Disturbed or capsized" , "emotional" , "Disrupted; knock over" , "Sad" , "Distressed; overturn" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
