Selena Gomez beat you to this when she played Alex Russo in "Wizards of Waverly Place":
"You lie, you get in trouble. You tell the truth, you get in trouble."
That quote doesn't take into accounts levels of trouble though. Lying will only get you into more trouble than you're already in. So tell the whole truth-or as much of the truth as you know if you don't know the whole truth.
