Video Vault: Bangles -- Make a Play for Her Now

I have nothing new to say today, nothing at all.  Just feeling very dark.  So here's an appropriately dark song from the Bangles, "Make a Play for Her Now", from 1988's Everything (their last album as a group before their initial breakup).
Vicki Petersen co-wrote this song, apparently, with Vinnie Vincent of KISS fame, something I never knew until I looked up the lyrics to verify them.

Words of comfort and love
Spoken indesign, turn cruel unkind
You have your ready treasure of sin
And it all begins with an innocent smile
Go on, make a play for her now
While I'm standing here I'll bleed so slow
You may never know
Whisper she's safe
That you sympathize the darkest lies
When you know right now that you'll be gone
At the kiss of dawn
Your conscience runs clear
Go on, make a play for her now
While I'm standing here I'll bleed so slow
You may never know
Oh, and I won't make a sound
Hey, who am I to lay the blame
When it's all a game to you
You and I misfired
Left me cold and tired
Hey love, it's alright
Go on, make a play for her now
While I'm standing here I don't keep score (don't keep score), not anymore
Oh, and I won't make a sound
Hey, who am I to lay the blame
When it's all a game
No, in the back of your mind 
Patterns starting to unwind
And you know you're alone
And you smile anyhow
When the moment allows
Make a play for her now

And yes, that is Vicki on lead here. Susanna Hoffs unfairly got most of the credit for lyric work on most of the Bangles hits (a major reason for their breakup), when the truth was all four ladies were talented vocalists.
