Yeah, hyenas get the short end of the stick in that movie. Even if you allow that there's some sort of Fisher King thing going on with drought/rain thing that cares really earnestly about standard human-style monarchical succession in the local lion pride, the lions are still dicks for keeping the hyenas out of all the good gazelle lands. (And let's not get into the concept of a king who eats his own subjects.)
That said, "Be Prepared" is an awesome song. Back when the movie came out, I bought my little sister the Official Cassette Tape for Christmas (...my god, that was a long time ago), and we'd sing that song together, with her doing all the hyena parts and me doing Scar. It was fun!
