This is also the exact reason why we stopped doing this with people, it just isn't reflective of if they are good or not. Instead we ask you to psuedo code something and just walk us through it as you do it. In fact we prefer to do it as a team, so we suggest something and hopefully you take it from there, or correct us or give us your ideas etc. It also helps us see if you fit in the team too, and honestly it helps people relax.
And hey, I would laughed if I heard a candidate say oh shit. that's good stuff, and shows you are human like the rest of us. Frankly, I wouldn't be worried about blowing that interview, you'll find someplace where you'll fit and do well.
