Unfortunately, the song "This is Not a Love Song" is not by David Guetta. It is actually a song by the post-punk band Public Image Ltd (PiL), released in 1983. The lyrics were written by John Lydon (formerly known as Johnny Rotten from the Sex Pistols) and the music was composed by the band. The lyrics suggest that the song is a rejection of traditional love songs. It emphasizes that it is not about love, but rather about the speaker's adaptation to the business world and their pursuit of financial success. The line "Happy to have, not to have not" suggests contentment with having possessions and/or wealth. The repetition of the phrase "This is not a love song" throughout the song reinforces the theme and serves as a reminder that the song's focus is not on romantic love. It seems to criticize the superficiality and commercialization of love, instead emphasizing the speaker's desire for success and a change in their lifestyle. The later verses mention being adaptable, improving oneself, and being involved in free enterprise. The lyrics also briefly mention escaping from something, possibly referring to breaking free from societal norms or expectations. The final part of the song brings up the concept of television, significance of being behind the curtain, and stepping out of the metaphorical cupboard. This could be interpreted as a critique of media and the need to break free from its influence. Overall, "This is Not a Love Song" appears to be a rebellious track rejecting clichéd notions of love and focusing on personal advancement and adaptability. The lyrics are open to individual interpretation and can be understood in various ways, depending on one's perspective.
