This is the type of song where it is unlikely the video will represent the lyrics of the song, however if it did, the song's lyrics are based upon not wanting to get into a serious relationship and keeping it casual because the 'singer' doesn't love the other person.
Typically the electro, dance and remix music genres feature CGI, in their music videos.
Other common codes and conventions of the Dance genre, are for the video's to contain young women dancing, often wearing minimalist clothing.
Also as the song features a famous artist it would be common for the video to contain some footage of her singing, to promote her and her own band, The Gossip.
