Jungian slip 

When one attempts to tell a lie but makes a verbal slip-up that reveals the truth.
Examples of a Jungian slip:

"I didn't stay out late last night, I spent the whole time in her bedroom, I mean my bedroom."

"I haven't finished the project because I took the day off work last week. I mean because I took the day off sick last week."
