I don't know what it is, but when I play Don't Starve, poetry springs to mind.
The tempo here is based on the song "The Army Goes Rolling Along," which is billed as the official song of the United States Army. Various versions of it date back to 1908, so it's not inconceivable that Wilson has heard of it (why did I just justify that?...).

Over here, over there,
Following the winding trail
As our science goes marching along!
Over marsh, through the reeds,
Followed by our trusty steeds
So that science goes marching along!
Going hi-hi-ay!
Run to live another day
So that science goes marching along!
Going hi-hi-aiiee!
Dodging yet another tree
As our science goes running along!
