Aren't they anywhere on the internet ? I have the record, and if no one else can help, I'll have a listen and see what I can come up with. Maybe you could post the lyrics you do have, and those you're not sure of, and some of us here can "fill in the gaps".

Thanx. It's nowhere to be found. AS pity - the Blues Band is a Pearl. I love their Music and like to play it myself. I do have a lot of the songtexts, but this one was hard for me to transcribe. Here is what I've got;
Find yourself another fool

Our love affair is through

This is how I hear it from the YouTube video:


FIND YOURSELF ANOTHER FOOL
Written by Tom McGuinness & Lou Stonebridge
As recorded by The Blues Band on "Ready" (1980)

Find yourself another fool
Ain’t gonna be round to be treated cruel
Here’s what you’ve got to understand 
I’m fouling up your masterplan 
Find yourself another fool

Find yourself another clown
Ain’t gonna be here to be pushed around
Search this land from East to West
You’ve had the best now try the rest
Find yourself another clown

I used to smile all the while
(all the while) ‘till I met you
Now I’m crying all the time
(all the time) - better forget you
You’re messin’ up my mind
You’re wastin’ precious time 
Have I got news for you
Our love affair is through 

Find yourself another fool
Ain’t gonna be round to be treated cruel
Now I can’t hear you when you call
My bag is packed, it’s in the hall
Find yourself another fool

< solo >

Have I got news for you
Our love affair is through 

Find yourself another fool

Search this land from East to West
You’ve had the best now try the rest

Find yourself another 
Find yourself another 
Find yourself another fool
