What does anda, tira mean?

ExpressionColoquial

go on then — get a move on

Tirar is to go or to move, not to throw: tira para casa, tira p'allá. With anda in front it is an affectionate shove, much used to close a conversation that has given all it had, and it often arrives with its excuse attached: que es tarde, que se enfría la cena.

Anda, tira, que se te escapa el autobús.
The conversation is over, kindly.
