Aliens have taken you aboard their ship. You will be asked to make a statement. If the statement is true you will be blasted into atoms. If it is false you will be ejected into space. One statement can get you out alive. What is it and how does it spare you?

"I'll sell you the Earth, cheap!!!" (since you are an inhabitant, if you sold it would that legitimize an occupation?)

I will be ejected into space.

They can't do it without making it true, which belies  how they have said they would deal with you(assuming that a race that would decide to kill you for no apparent reason needs to stick to verbal obligations?
