    On Monday night, the band was performing at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, and everything seemed to be running smoothly.

    While playing their After Laughter hit "Hard Times," sparks suddenly shot out from the sides of the stage, right above the band, who weren't expecting it at all.

    Hayley, who was confused and also mid-song, took this as an opportunity to ad-lib and sang, "Somebody's getting fired..."

    "somebody's getting fired"

    "Beyoncé did it so we can, too, and I can’t wait to speak with you. It’s the third time you've done this shit to us," she continued, without skipping a beat.

    Several fans quickly ran to the comments to support Hayley's bit, adding how dangerous that misfire could've been inside an arena with thousands of people — especially if this was the THIRD time it's happened:

    "as a Pyro tech.... lie... 3rd time??"
    "As someone that works in the industry..."
    "That is so scary tho..."
    "That's a tame reaction..."

    "Hard Times"
    "the Beyonce somebody getting fired reference is top tier"
    "Haley Williams is literally the queen of music"
