If you manage to get something spicy up there, it would definitely burn.

But, as to why it doesn’t generally… Urine is water and waste products that your kidneys filter out of your blood. The irritating chemicals in spicy foods never made it into your blood, so never make it into your urine. Instead, they stay in your gastro-intestinal tract until they’re pooped out.
