Tear one off and scratch my head, what once was red is black instead!
Common Wrong Answers
“A rubber band”
A rubber band does not change color when stretched or manipulated, and it doesn't have a 'head' to scratch.
“A candle”
While a candle can turn black as it burns, it doesn't have a 'head' to scratch, and you don't tear anything off from it.
“A piece of charcoal”
Charcoal is already black and doesn't have a head to scratch, nor does it involve tearing something off.
