It's probably about the disorder, about the "jamming" in our society. Michael criticizes the bahaviour of many people giving more attention to put through their own will and care just about themselves instead of caring about others and doing everything with a bit more love. e.g."I ask my neighbour for a favour, she said later, what has come of all the people have we lost love of what it's about." When you know about the content of the song, it's literally more fun to listen to that!
Solaka Thomas It's a deep song but most people get energized by the chorus and background music they don't hear what he's talking about.It's about the sickness of society in different ways.
Michael is talking about the Family dysfunction of the time were couples were having the highest Divorce rate Michael is insinuating that we are living in a "Jam" were the people are being so scared and confused they'll believe anything to keep them safe hence the line "she prays to god then buddah then sings a talmud song" she's believing any thing that'll keep her safe from the danger of the Jam the society has placed on her He also has in the chorus "Jam,it ain't too much it ain't no good to jam" Which is stating its not okay to follow people and not think for yourself and come about any situation without trying and instead hiding it Edit: In the music video intro you'll hear two couple or a child and her mother arguing and she says "Get out of my house!!" And the globe of earth is thrown out the window This is stating that our values are being thrown out hence the globe and that the values we once had are scattered on the dirt and its the time to come together to get those values back
