A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

I have always heard two lines in Green Day's "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)" as the following:

"...Tounge grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go..."
-(TIME grabs you by the wrist...)

"...Hang it on the shelf with good old fingered time..."
-(hang it on the shelf IN good HEALTH and GOOD TIME)

I recently learned how to play this song on guitar, and it wasn't until I looked up the lyrics online that I realized I had been singing the song wrong for years
