Its really has a duel meaning and is mostly used in male company.
In the first instance it is used to inform you that the fly of your pants is undone.
The second usage and the more common is to tell someone to shut up as they are talking either talking crap or talking too much.
As the Irish have a quirky sense of humour this is often said in jest.
Irish people often use humour as a means of getting a point across.
