Alicia Keys is currently in the hot seat! Being accused of stealing, someone else’s lyrics.

According to reports, Alicia Keys hit single, “Girl on Fire” has stolen lyrics from Earl Shuman and Leon Carr’s 1960’s hit, “Hey There Lonely Girl.”

Shuman plans to take legal action against Alicia Keys for these lines you can hear in the song:

“Nobody knows that she’s a lonely girl/And it’s a lonely world.”

Shuman(89) has begun the search for a suitable lawyer.

Shuman revealed he sued both Anita Baker and the Beastie Boys for also using parts of the song without his permission.
