but 

  of course it is tick
 known tock
 that  money is 
Time

and of course

  Time ticks Things
   and Things tock.
we need 

and so
child,
you must do this
and tock that
and finish the other

for it not,
child,

silly child,
you’ll have very little
tick tock  to spend

And even less
tock tick money
to enjoy
why do we use the same verbs for time as for money?
