The chorus of Paul Simon's -"50 Ways to Leave Your Lover" comes to mind.
Maybe the alarm signal should play that song rather than a siren or an
alarm bell.

Wouldn't the word "Escape" signify that the occupants would already be
trapped as opposed to "Evacuate" which would mean that the occupants
need to leave (in an orderly fashion - off course) before becoming
trapped?

I just noticed that my employer of three months has an "Escape Plan"
posted
on its walls.

Curious, this, and most apropo.

(Every other place I've worked has had an "Evacuation Plan".)

Remember the Easybeats: *I've got Friday on my mind!\*
