Wong died from a heart attack on 16 October 1991.
Wong wrote scripts for films ranging from action to comedy. As an actor, Wong was known for his supporting roles, often wearing his horn-rimmed glasses.

I had a new premonition
I have found the non light
I've had a brand new renewal of sight
Do you need a new genuflection?
Do you wanna make a different pact?
You've got to get in with the facts
It's the end
Innocence gone
Your whole meaning
Becomes undone
You've made an art of treachery
You'll be snake right out of anything
I've said, "I won't do, not a thing"
To the double negative, you can only agree
Are you waiting for your resurrection?
Do you wanna make a different pact?
You've got to get in with the facts
Do you need a new genuflection?
Do you wanna make a different pact?
You've got to get in with the facts
It's the end
Innocence gone
Your whole meaning
Becomes undone
Innocence gone
Innocence gone
Innocence gone
Innocence gone
It's the end
Innocence gone
Your whole meaning
Becomes undone
It's the end
Innocence gone
Your whole meaning
