Shouldn't the first line be "What DID the camera" and not "What IF the camera"?
I'm surprised no one has questioned this yet since the current lyrics don't seem to make any sense (or at least not to me).
What if the camera really do? Take your soul? - This sounds like some black ghetto person speaking in Ebonics and trying to say "What did the camera really do"
So either the lyrics here are wrong or I'm wrong and Arcade Fire has suddenly become a hip hop group and has forgotten how to speak proper english.
think about the style of the song though, and the more haitian undertones to this album. may be more of a folklore like language than a straight english..
