Local H had a song called Eddie Vedder? The lyrics are:
Quarters on the eyes
Rejected Sacrifice
Cauterized at best
Failing your litmus test
I know it's dumb to say
But turnabout's fair play
Always knew that you
Were suffering a fool
You go ahead - as good as dead
Okay - I understand
But I don't want to be your friend
I don't need another friend
I've got too many friends
If I was Eddie Vedder
Would you like me any better?
That's it - I quit - I don't give a shit
You go ahead - as good as dead
Coming to a head
You're as good as dead

Off the top of my head I think that That Dog is the band you're looking for.

This isn't the song you're asking about, but since we're talking about songs with Eddie in them:
The Rugburns: Me and Eddie Vedder
Quote:
I wanna die wasted In a room with eddie vedder We could both die together But he'll go first Yeah eddie'll go first 'cause he's more famous More famous than the rugburns When you buy our coffins Put eight tracks in 'em Playin' houses of the holy 'cause it's a really bitchin' album Remember when I told you Remember how it fades out Remember when I told you

SNFU-Better Than Eddie Vedder lyrics
He seemed shy and so confused
Now that he's older,
he's last year's news
She is looking for somebody fresh and young
She is looking for someone less miserable
She's looking for somebody better
Much better than Eddie Vedder
His pictures used to line her locker
But they don't hang there any longer
She has gone,
and she has burned them all
Eddie comes crashing down from her bathroom wall
Now she's looking for somebody cuter
Someone more fun who rides a scooter
Eddie hides his face under a jokeshop mask
Eddie,
you missed the grade,
you failed the test
She's looking for somebody better
Much better than Eddie Vedder

is this song serious?
Yes and no. It's more of a tongue in cheek potshot at teenage pop idol worship than at attack at Ed.
