The Lyrics
As sung by HIllary Clinton when she realizes that Kerry actually has a chance to win.
Election's near, the race begun
Don't know why I didn't run
White House life was so much fun
Don't know why I didn't run, I
Don't know why I didn't run
Kerry is a blue-blood snob
Doesn't really need the job
Edwards is an empty suit
Even though he's sorta cute
For now I must pretend
Kerry is my friend
Whatever...
With Bush and Cheney under fire
Kerry's hopes are getting higher
But if he wins then it's too late
For "Hillary 2008"
For now I must pretend
Kerry is my friend
Whatever...
The Senate's slow, my book is done
Don't know why I didn't run, I
Really think I could've won
Don't know why I didn't run
Don't know why I didn't run, I
Don't know why I didn't run.
Don't know why I didn't run
White House life was so much fun
Don't know why I didn't run, I
Don't know why I didn't run
Kerry is a blue-blood snob
Doesn't really need the job
Edwards is an empty suit
Even though he's sorta cute
For now I must pretend
Kerry is my friend
Whatever...
With Bush and Cheney under fire
Kerry's hopes are getting higher
But if he wins then it's too late
For "Hillary 2008"
For now I must pretend
Kerry is my friend
Whatever...
The Senate's slow, my book is done
Don't know why I didn't run, I
Really think I could've won
Don't know why I didn't run
Don't know why I didn't run, I
Don't know why I didn't run.

Good, solid parody. A really clever line or two or some kind of clever twist would have nudged it over into 5 territory.
I thought this was going to be about running away from Bill. That would've been funnier.
Nice job. "Whatever..." is perfect.
