“I'm just a musical prostitute, my dear”
— Freddie Mercury

Simplified Meaning:
The speaker is saying they are willing to create music for money, regardless of their personal feelings. It's like a job where they do what people want or need, just to get paid. Think of a baker who will bake a cake whether it's their favorite flavor or not, as long as the customer pays. In history, many artists might not love every project they work on, but they do it to make a living. This idea can be applied to life by understanding that sometimes, people have to work on things they might not enjoy just to earn money or keep their job. It’s about doing what’s necessary to survive in your career, even if it means not always working on your passion projects.
