Aw. Well, it was bound to happen eventually.
Are you found outside the police station?

Are you the Drink Moxie sign?
Moxie rhymes with Mummy.

Outside of a lie
I show a lot of gumption
You still can find me
Gumption = Moxie
The lie is because it leads to a Speak Easy?

Yes I am! And correct on all counts. "You still can find me" because Moxie is still sold. Fun fact: the word "moxie" actually comes from the drink and not the other way around.
I think this also concludes my "Sign Trilogy". My previous two "Who am I"s have been the Colonial sign in PQ1 and a sign in Torin's Passage.

I did not know that about the word Moxie.
Which I am ashamed of, since my Corgi is named "Moxie May."
OK, I will think of something and return...

But wait a bit: "Moxie" does NOT rhyme with "Mummy".
"Moxie" rhymes with "Doxy" or "Foxy". "Mummy" rhymes with "Dummy" or "Gummy". They're completely different word sounds.
The only things that "Moxie" and "Mummy" have in common are that they both start with "M" and end with an "ee" sound. THEY DO NOT RHYME.
No wonder I was led astray!!!

That's right. I forgot about your Corgi's name. I had no idea about "moxie" either until now. This actually goes beyond words from name brands like band-aid and jello. I don't think anyone thinks of Moxie as a brand anymore.

Fine. Maybe rhyming a bit of a stretch. This better?
I also end with a "y" sound.

I would beg to differ. They do rhyme because of the "ee" sound at the end.
Moxie rhymes with money which rhymes with mummy.
How much of the word has to "rhyme" for you to classify it as a rhyme?
This site even suggests "mommy" rhymes with "moxie"...
So I assume mommy and mummy are close enough...

Down, down, down you go
Come out the other side
Does this rhyme? I don't know?
I thought it did, maybe I lied?
Anyway, not much to do
I guess you may feel dizzy
I hope you get this clue
And like these rhymes without getting... uh, pissy? Does that rhyme with Dizzy?
Yes, there's actual clues there as to what I am referencing for the game!
But also me being snarky!

Well ... "dizzy" rhymes with "easy". Or "Squeezy".
That's because they both have the "zee" ending. "Pissy" is close but not quite, because it has the "see" ending.
Try speaking the word "dizzy" and "squeezy" and you'll see what I'm getting at.
Also, the first verse reminds me of "Row, row, row your boat". Is that what you were getting at?
And my guess ... are you in the Space Quest games somewhere?

Hahahah! I knew Pissy and Dizzy didn't rhyme which is why I was silly and ended that line with the same word (dizzy instead of pissy)
And the row, row, row your boat is, perhaps, not far off....
Because, why, yes, I am indeed in a Space Quest game (I figured this one might be super easy)
